First a Murceilago, now a Koenigsegg...!
Discussion
I spotted 3 very unusual tail lights in a yard just off the bottom of my road in Barnes, whilst driving to work today. Pulling in, I discovered a brand new black CC parked up for the night.
The car seems to be the exact one on their website: www.racecarnewmedia.co.uk/modenacars/stockdetail.asp?VehicleID=1 - I am guessing it is being used by somebody from Modena Cars, as I have seen a Murceilago here recently. I am curious if anyone here knows who is bringing these ridiculous machines home (anyone work/know someone who works for Modena?). It was parked in a Larcom Ltd bay.
Just an idle fantasy that I could introduce myself and blag a ride in one of these!!

I thought that Arthur fellow had a grey Koenigsegg. Mind you, it did keep breaking on the Gumball. I wonder why he doesn't get a McLaren F1 until the reliability of the car is sorted. I am in no way slating the Koenigsegg, it is brilliant, but I wouldn't by one just yet, even if I had the money.

he has 2, one was ordered prior to gumball 2003, which wasnt to be ready in time (black one i imagine) and the second was bought (obv pre owned or at premium!) to do the race when his ordered one wasnt going to be ready in time. this is what i have heard anyway
He was lent the Modena demo car - which was shipped over to the states for him to participate.
I am waiting to test the CC8 demo - which has now had the full 806 hp enginer upgrade, I am advised.
Bring it on!

Flip. Get an orange one like in the recent publicity shots for the 800 BHP version.
Nicest doors in the business I'd say.

For those interested, the Directors of Larcom have been charged with a massive VAT fraud totalling 25mGBP.
It is part of a so-called crackdown by UK Customs and Excise. Let's hope Arthur gets a fair trial.
I, alas, am not..............
Good luck, mate.
For those interested, try entering "operation Devout" into Google.

Can i just ask, have any of you guys driven or even being lucky enough to own a koenigsegg? That has gotta be one of the nicest cars on the planet and is the new "Poster Car" without doubt for any 16 year old boy such as myself. Anyway personally id either have it in Bright Orange like the recent phtos or lime green just so i stood out. Thanks Tjolly

"Operation Devout" seems to have taken place 18 months ago. I'm not sure how a company could still be trading 18 months on following a £25m VAT fraud charge?
