That was a big 'off' for Stig in the Koenigsegg wasn't it?  :o

Great show - so glad it's 'Top Gear Season' again :D

Great show, so glad to see it back - the "Convertible Espace" was brilliant ;D

So what did they do with the Koenigsegg? A little bird told me it's this one.

Ah I think we have some wires crossed here, that particular beauty was on Fifth Gear.

The Koenigsegg featured in Top Gear was an even faster, even more ridiculous CCR. Still a lovely piece 'o kit.

Ah, that might be his new one.

They raced it off-course! And their own private racer "the Stig" couldn't set a faster lap than with the Zonda... So he wanted to have another go, going even further this time... only he forgot to mention further could also be understood as aside the road! I loved how that car almost ate the rubber tire! Quite frankly, I can't understand why Koenigthingy didn't put a wing on it in the first place... if it's that wild and uncontrolable...

The convertible Espace was pure slapstick! I loved every second of it!  ;D Setting fire to a car-wash... awsome!  ;D

I suspect that it wouldn't be capable of 242mph flat out if it had a rear wing on it ;)

Hmmm... agreed... but what do you do when the first corner comes in sight? Panic? Pray? Go straith? Eject?  ;D
