Anyway my friends who were staying at the same hotel gave me a tow in their C5 Corvette and the engine started.

My car is back now in the UK at the dealership yet again to see what the problem is. The air con is also not working even though a new air con compressor was fitted last November.

Air conditioning problem: could be a R134 gas leak from one of the high pressure pipes. Could be also the expansion valve and the o-rings.

Starting: might depend from many factors. Alternator not charging, starter's brushes not working properly, or a mass in the electric plant, a fuse/relay...

These are just tips. I am sure the Koenigsegg guys will solve your problem.

And well, I guess you might enjoy this picture...!
Not taken by me.


And I am sure you enjoyed the company of Saywell's "Orange Juice"!
And you noticed the bare carbonfiber CCXR Edition standing at the paddock...

That was annoying. I beleive discussion with Koenigsegg Sweden would be able to give you a straight and nice help with this.

Like I said, I'm sure the guys at Koenigsegg will be able to solve all the little troubles.

P.S. If its bullet proof build and reliability you want there are thousands of people hanging out here that would utter one letter and one number to you Although there is no way that could replace an "egg" as you call it . Its funny my cousin calls his Bugatti (no not Veyron) his "bug", I love short simple down to earth names for out-of-this-world cars

Wel, the wife of a well known supercar maker calls the finished cars... Her "babies"...!
