The billionaire businessman who hit headlines after airlifting his McLaren Senna GTR 57 stories so he could use it as an ornament in his penthouse is adding a  Koenigsegg Jesko to his collection.

Australian car enthusiast Adrian Portelli wanted to display his McLaren as the ‘centerpiece’ of his Melbourne home. 

To achieve his goal, he enlisted the help of a crane to lift the car almost 60 stories into the air to his penthouse apartment.

Now, he’s set to become the proud owner of a $3 million Koenigsegg Jesko to his collection. 

The businessman explained that as the car isn’t road-legal, it made sense to put it on display in his house – he kind of has a point, right?
“It was sitting in a factory and I can’t drive it on the road,” he told 9 News.

“I decided to have it craned up there instead.

“It’s an art piece.”

Not quite content with having one of the most sought-after and expensive vehicles sitting in his lounge – not to mention owning an envy-inducing car collection – Portelli is set to add a Koenigsegg Jesko to his haul.

According to the Egg Registry Portelli is set to take delivery of a right-hand drive Jesko Attack with the chassis number 7361. 

It will be only the second Koenigsegg Jesko in the whole of Australia and features exposed carbon fiber bodywork with gold leaf detailing on the front splitter.
