For the uninitiated, Olsson is a professional skier renowned for his choice of cars. Not content with rubbing shoulders with the proletariat on the ski bus, in the past he's slapped a roof box on to a modified GT-R, Audi R8, Lamborghini Gallardo and Murcielago SV and even a Le Mans-style prototype race car and made his way to the slopes that way.
Its sharp-edged aero appendages look nuts enough, but under the skin is where things have really been turned up a notch, for beneath the RS6's bonnet lurk two blingy 18-karat gold anodized turbo chargers. These help take the twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 from 552bhp to a staggering 950bhp if Jon buys his petrol from the shops. If he gets some high-octane go-juice from a race track, he's staring down the barrel crossover at over 1000bhp.
The pièce de résistance is a clear-coat carbon roof box. It took 56 Nord over a year to make and handily boosts crossover the RS6's 565-litre bootspace by swallowing the fattest pair of powder skis on the market.
If you want to see the car in person, Jon will be piloting it from Stockholm to Las Vegas in May on this year's Gumball 3000. If you're in the vicinity - which given it's taking place over most of the Earth, you probably will be - hit the streets and give him a wave. We're sure you'll hear him coming.
