A Koenigsegg Jesko Attack caused absolute chaos in Mayfair, London.
The driver wasn’t speeding, but he was revving the engine, which can be pretty loud in a car like the Jesko.
As a reminder, the Jesko delivers up to 1,600 horsepower on E85 fuel.
So the Jesko has 1,600 horse(power) but, ironically, a police officer on a horse was all it took to stop it.

Two horses vs a 1,600-horsepower Koenigsegg Jesko Attack
The scene shared to TikTok by Avistadacars is the sort of stuff talented Hollywood screenwriters could come up with.
This Koenigsegg Jesko Attack, a car worth over $3 million and with 1,600 horsepower when running on E85 fuel, was wreaking havoc in Mayfair, one of the poshest parts of London.
The driver wasn’t speeding, but he was revving the car’s engine quite loudly, which can be enough to get you a ticket in London, or at the very least a slap on the wrist.
And that’s what happened, when two police officers on horses pulled him over.
This is quite normal in London
The streets are always packed, traffic is bad, there’s no parking and there’s a (hefty) congestion charge, but none of that matters to millionaires and billionaires who regularly drive their expensive supercars in London.
You can rare Lambos, Bugattis and even an actual Formula 1 car.
Several billionaires and millionaires from countries like Saudi Arabia and Qatar regularly fly their supercars to London, and they do it precisely just because they want to drive it in the city.
Apart from London, this sort of thing generally only happens in Principality of Monaco, which is certainly a magnet for billionaires.
So much so that they even had to built an artificial island to accommodate more billionaires.
The country was literally running out of space, imagine that.
