Koenigsegg Hundra: One-off Koenigsegg Agera S – first details & pictures

To drag an extra 50mph plus out of Octavia vRS did necessitate a tweak or three, but nothing overly dramatic.

Resulting in a truly heroic drive to the hospital, arriving, against all odds, just before the baby is born – to the admiration of all concerned. Including Plod, who naturally failed to keep up with you as you went through traffic lights, right angle bends and narrow country lanes at the speed of light….
