Only 20 limited edition cars were sold globally and intended for top clients of the Pagani brand. It was unveiled at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. The Huayra BC is named after the late Benny Caiola, a friend of Horacio Pagani. Powered by a 6.0 Liter, the AMG V12 produces 800+ HP and 1,100 NM of torque. This particular Huayra weighs only 2,685 pounds. A long list of engineering feats were achieved to make this car the legend it is today. Macchina Volante means Flying Machine in Italian. The name car was built in tribute to Horacio Pagani’s respect of his role model, Leonardo da Vinci. Leonardo da Vinci was an inventor and an engineer. He had a tremendous passion for flight, machinery, and ideas that would change the world even today.

  • Pagani and Sonus Faber Press Release
    Pagani and Sonus faber announce partnership with the introduction of an exclusive premium high-end audio system for the new Pagani Huayra Renowned high-end luxury audio speaker manufacturer Sonus faber and sports car manufacturer and design atelier Pagani have developed in co—design an exclusive premium high-end audio system for the Pagani Huayra. This achievement marks the first step of a partnership between two iconic Italian brands. The Pagani vehicles have always been known for their every day car capabilities, despite the performance they regularly demonstrate on the world’s most prestigious racetracks. The Pagani Huayra has been praised for its smooth supple ride, light cabin interior and confidence inspiring handling. Creating a high-end audio system that would improve on both extremes of his two-sided nature was a challenge for the expert audio engineers at Sonus faber and the creative team at Pagani. Technical specifications Sonus faber has transcended its music reproduction skills for this supercar challenge. From the immutable harmony of interiors to the rhythm “on the road”, a set of new paradigms has been created. Power versus featherweight, is the leitmotiv. New, innovative, Carbon cones have been developed, marrying extreme rigidity to lowest weight, inspired by the Carbo-Titanium nature of Huayra. Neodymium magnets are used throughout for highest performance and lightest weight possible. Reverberating the car extreme performance, the new Sonus faber audio system provides an amplifiers’ structure which delivers a total amount of 1.200 Watt power output, tripling the performance available in the Huayra ‘s standard sound system. When the mighty AMG V12 engine is not singing the song of power, a Digital Sound Processor creates a refined atmosphere where both driver and passenger can enjoy hearing a rich sound experience not normally expected in a hypersports car.

  • Geneva Debut Cars of the Last Decade: Appreciating and Depreciating Models
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 06 March 2019 GENEVA DEBUT CARS OF THE LAST DECADE: APPRECIATING AND DEPRECIATING MODELS • JBR Capital identifies top 10 cars launched at the Geneva Motor Show in the last 10 years* • Lamborghini Veneno worth 180 per cent more than when unveiled in 2013 • The current generation Maserati Quattroporte, launched the same year, is down 71 per cent in value London-based JBR Capital, specialists in high-end vehicle finance, has named the top 10 cars that have appreciated in value or held their worth after launching at the Geneva Motor Show over the last decade. The Lamborghini Veneno, unveiled at the show in 2013, tops the charts as this ultra-limited edition has appreciated in value by 180 per cent – according to the experts at JBR Capital. With a launch price tag of £2.6 million, there were only five Veneno coupes ever sold and they could now be worth in excess of £7.3 million each. In stark contrast, there are some cars that have depreciated by more than two thirds since debuting at the Geneva Motor Show, such as the sixth generation Maserati Quattroporte. Revealed in the same year as the prized Veneno, the current Quattroporte model – despite being a marked improvement on its predecessor – can now be purchased for a much more affordable £32,000, with that price quoted for low mileage V8 examples. JBR Capital’s top 10 Geneva Motor Show debut cars are, in the following order: Car Geneva Price at Value Value debut launch now change Lamborghini 2013 £2.6m £7.3m +180% Veneno Ferrari LaFerrari 2013 £1.15m £2.4m +109% Koenigsegg

Chassis no 007 is 1 of only 100 examples to be produced of which only 19 are right-hand drive and only 4 of those UK cars, with the majority located in Asia and North America. Optional extras include: multi-layer paint, exposed carbon fibre in gloss finish, exterior aluminium set in titanium finish, Malevic premium leather interior, rosso stitching, interior aluminium set in titanium finish, extra large seat size, 6 piece luggage set, gold anodised finished wheels, dark red brake callipers. We have known this particular car from new, with only 2,903 miles it’s never sustained any accident damage and is complete with its original books, spare key, key box, silk car cover and history file. Chassis 007 also benefits from a thorough service history including its most recent service by Pagani UK in January 2019. A supercar with real heart and soul, something that can be aesthetically appreciated from every angle whilst very much at home on the open roads with its breathtaking Tom Hartley Jnr Limited, Ivanhoe Business Park, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, LE65 2UY Tel: +44 (0)1283 761119 Fax: +44 (0)1283 769888 Email: [email protected] www.tomhartleyjnr.com performance.
