One of six customer Koenigsegg One:1s heads to auction in Germany. Chassis 7108 has been linked to years of ownership rumors. RM Sotheby’s estimate appears conservative given recent speculation. Earlier this year, reports surfaced alleging that men believed to be members of the infamous Wagner Group, the Russian mercenary outfit, had forcibly seized a one-off Koenigsegg One:1 linked to former Formula 1 driver Adrian Sutil, and that Interpol was hunting for it. Both claims would turn out to be wrong. Those reports appear to trace back to a European website that spun an outdated January 7, 2026, German report into an April 30 “breaking” story that some outlets then recirculated.

On March 23, Germany’s Bild reported that it had found the supposedly stolen One:1 parked in Munich, never stolen at all. The car had been confiscated by the Baden-Württemberg State Criminal Police Office (LKA) and released to its owner, the leasing firm AIL Leasing. “The claim that this car was wanted by Interpol was pure fiction,” sales manager Christian Finke told Bild in March. RM Sotheby’s RM Sotheby’s has announced that chassis 7108, believed to be the very same One:1 at the center of those reports, will cross the block at its Tegernsee auction next month carrying an estimate of €8 million to €10 million ($9.1 million to $11.4 million). Yet the price tag is only part of the story. Known within Koenigsegg circles as “JC,” the hypercar is believed to be the third customer One:1 ever built. Seven were made in total, six customer cars plus a prototype, and like the rest of the public examples, it packs a twin-turbocharged 5.0-liter V8 good for 1,360 hp (1,014 kW) while tipping the scales at roughly 2,998 lbs (1,360 kg), giving it the 1:1 power-to-weight ratio that inspired the name.

The exposed carbon fiber body is contrasted by bright China Pink accents across the splitter, roof scoop, side skirts, diffuser, active rear wing, and even the carbon fiber Aircore wheels. The theme continues inside with matching pink stitching and trim details throughout the cabin. Photos RM Sotheby’s According to the Egg Registry, the hypercar was originally commissioned to match the owner’s collection, which reportedly included a Pagani Zonda 760 JC, Ferrari FXX-K, and 458 Speciale Aperta finished in a similar color scheme. The registry also notes that the One:1 was seen at a track event at the Shanghai International Circuit in 2016 before largely disappearing from public view. And things get especially interesting at this stage of its history. The Sutil Connection Over the past few years, plenty of people assumed Sutil owned the car. He was filmed driving what appears to be it on several occasions, most notably in Monaco, the same place the Egg Registry says the One:1 spends its summers. Tellingly, RM Sotheby’s makes no mention of Sutil anywhere in its catalog description, nor does it mention the reports that thrust chassis 7108 into the spotlight. However, Auto Motor und Sport, which also tracked down chassis 7108 at AIL Leasing in Grünwald near Munich and reviewed the vehicle documents, reports that Sutil isn’t listed as the registered owner at all. According to Koenigsegg dealer Markus Esser, the registered holder is Pace Cars International GmbH, a Düsseldorf-based subsidiary of his company. Esser laid out how the car reached Sutil. His company delivered the One:1 new in 2015, bought it back in 2019, then financed it through a sale-and-leaseback with AIL Leasing near Munich. Pace Cars International then leased it to Sutil “permanently for a fee” until his arrest. In other words, the supposedly stolen hypercar was a leased car that found its way back to its rightful owner, just like Bild reported. Carscoops has reached out to the auction house for clarification and will update this post if we hear back. As for the documented side of the story, the auction house focuses on the registration history. According to the current listing, the car was delivered on April 4, 2015, through Esser Automotive, Koenigsegg’s longtime German representative. The listing also outlines a detailed service history, including visits to Esser Automotive in 2017, 2019, and 2021, service work at SIC Garage in 2022, and a recent service and factory updates completed ahead of the sale. The odometer currently shows just 4,233 km (2,630 miles). While RM Sotheby’s estimate tops out at €10 million, some observers believe the final price could climb significantly higher. After all, only six customer One:1s were ever built, and few are as instantly recognizable as chassis 7108. Whether it ultimately sells for €10 million or something much closer to the lofty figures circulating online, one thing seems certain: one of Koenigsegg’s most famous cars is about to find a new home.
