In an own goal for taste, Chelsea FC manager Jose ‘Special One’ Mourinho has joined a joint project with tuning firm Mansory and self-styled high society club Raff House to create a new supercar.
The finished car, of which just eleven will be made (accept no substitutes) is designed to ‘unite the best of Ferrari and Aston Martin’, according to the promotional literature.
A single teaser image has been revealed, showing a carbonfibre-bodied coupe with vertical exhaust outlets and faintly McLaren 12C-esque rear lights.
Mourinho is quoted (by the car’s backers) as saying ‘I can see myself driving this car to a big game, adrenaline filling my system, as I’m trying to get to the stadium as soon as possible, wishing for the game to start’.
It’s claimed the car will develop around 750bhp, though no powertrain details have yet been disclosed. Chelsea-supporting supercar buyers will doubtless be hoping the car is better at hitting its targets than star striker Fernando Torres, and costs less than £50m too.
