Veritas RS III

You may have already seen this car – or the pre-production version at least – being hammered around the Top Gear test track by Richard Hammond.  In the year or so since then it’s been given a facelift to make it look more like the lunatic it really is, and has finally been put on sale.

Ditch your wallet with the Case-Mate iPhone ID Case
