Exclamation Top Gear - 250mph Koeniggsegg CCX Returns to the Track

Download the torrent here - http://www.mininova.org/tor/324008



In one of our most spectacular challenges yet Richard Hammond travels to Cyprus where he pits the new Porshe Cayenne Turbo S against the RAF's freefall parachute display team, The Red Devils.

Jeremy Clarkson employs a top interior designer to convert a Mercedes S Class into the ultimate luxury car - with suprising results.

The BMW Z4 M flexes it's muscles when the Stig power tests it on the track and the star in the reasonably priced car is Hollywood A lister - Ewan McGregor.

koenigsegg has always been one of my favorite cars. isn't the ccx AWD? but i can't wait for the veyron. its gonna be crazy. i wish somebody who owns a veyron would let top gear borrow it. like the guy from pink floyd who let them borrow his enzo.

I don't know that they will do the Veyron after they already did that clip of the race from Italy to England with it. Very intresting segment.

That CCX is very cool.

I doubt they will get an official 16.4, but I am sure someone down the line will let them borrow the car.
