See SA’s only Pagani Huayra, and much more, at the Killarney Motor Show
The Killarney Motor Show, which takes place this Sunday, October 30, promises to provide plenty of entertainment for any kind of petrolhead.
In addition to the usual new car and bike displays, attendees can look forward to race cars and bikes, hundreds of customised cars, as well as drifting, spinning and breath-taking stunts. There’s even a fun fair to keep the kids entertained.
But the star of the show, according to organisers, will undoubtedly be this, the country’s only Pagani Huayra, and one of just 100 in existence.
This hypercar is powered by a 6.0-litre, twin turbo V12, sourced from Mercedes-AMG, and it’s good for 537kW and 1000Nm. And because its body and chassis are moulded almost entirely from carbon fibre, it barely weighs more than a compact hatchback. Thanks to its paltry kerb weight of 1 280kg, the Huayra will run from 100km/h in less than three seconds and reach a top speed of 337km/h.
The vehicle will be displayed by Supercar Cellar Storage, in a cordoned-off area in the Joubert Pits
Moving back to cars from the real world, the new car dealers will have their own dedicated test drive circuit at the show, offering test drives on the latest models all day.
