Barabus performance unveiled

tkr_main_header.jpgBarabus have released the figures for the car I wrote about yesterday we now know is called the TKR.  To be honest if they are accurate, they are staggering!

0-60 : 1.67 seconds, now that's traction! How do they get that level of explosive performance to the road?

Top Speed :  270Mph, now this is the REALLY impressive figure, the aero on the car must be even more impressive than the traction.

Price : £360,000, impressive when you think a Veyron is £600,000!

Numbers made : 100-150 per year, or they say 300-400 over 3 years.

Luxury : They state "The TKR is designed to compete with the world's fastest, quickest, best handling, most luxurious grand touring cars in the world, whilst providing a distinctly European driving experience for the fortunate few who will own one."

I can't wait to see the first public review of the car, if it's half as good as they say it will be a bargain!

Barabus ‘Veyron Killer’

Small English company Barabus is set to unveil the fruit of 10 years labour at the British Motor Show. The car has 1005Bhp, using a twin turbo 6.0L V8.

Looks promising, and they have warned that it could just pip the Veyron to the top of the speed stakes.
