Chris, I haven't bothered to ask. I'm not really the nosy type

I don't think it's Lolly though.

The sales manager just emailed me these photos at my request.

Enjoy!

Jox, that was the regular CCXR. If you export, you claim back some of the import tax you paid. It is a long and lengthy process, but some people do it.

I'd imagine it was sold for similar to asking price from factory.

Still, the concept of having to pay several hundred percent in import tax .... not sure I could do that with a straight face, even if I could afford it.

lol sorry you just seem to always have the inside info, so I thought I would ask

Whoever it is that has ordered the second one, I hope that they ordered it in a better colour. Silver is so over played on these Koenigsegg's.

Thanks for the additional photos! I love how the doors open, absolutely gorgeous.

Mike S - I can't believe that you knowingly let that beauty continue to linger in the showroom, rather than at home in your garage / in a space in the soon to be 80 car garage. DOOOOO IT!

Sweet car, but I'm not sure about the styling... Looks like something that Mansory got a hold of.

The regular CCXR is more elegant in my opinion. Top Gear wing for life.
