But they’ve topped all that by deciding that their canned supercar project – the Jaguar C-X75 – deserves a proper outing in public. Jaguar only have five development versions of the C-X75, but they’ve taken one to Goodwood – although it’s not on display – and are wheeling it out over the weekend to take part in the Michelin Supecar run up the hill.

We should just look which countries buy a custom-built  Bugatti Veyron. After all, titivating a Bugatti Veyron – any Bugatti Veyron –  means there has to be a decent amount of cash floating around at the top of the financial tree.
