    Yeah I'm not sure that I'd consider the nose ending up in a very small mound of loose dirt a crash...

    Wonder what these cars are like to drive and if their quest to go faster and faster has resulted in a lack of stability and downforce? Top Gear tested one and even the Stig found it pretty twitchy to drive.

    I might get flamed for saying this but perhaps is the K...whatever a bit like an American muscle car......

    well, martin brundle said, in his video, after testing the car on/off the track, he mentioned that the car is too twitchy ' even for a former F1 driver like him to drive '

    After the Stig crashed his, Koenigsegg took the car back and had a lot of aero parts fitted to it, the Stig then took it back to the track where he proclaimed it a lot more stable and actually said it was one of the best handling cars he had driven, it still remains the fastest car around the TG track.

    The car looked all over the place. The driver might have had something to do with it but the car seemed to be oversteering at the slightest provokation.
