Whatever you think of the Gumball 3000 rally, there"s one thing you can"t deny it"s packed with some of the most amazing cars in the world. But even in that rarified atmosphere, there are some cars that stand out above all others. This year it was the Arkham Knight Batman car, last year the fabulously over the top DTM-inspired RS6 estate, and the year before that, the Rebellion racer that looked like it had taken a wrong turning at the local race track.All three share a sense of humour and a committed technical execution, but that"s not all they have in common. What most people don"t know until now is that all three were also painstakingly hand-built by one man and a few key suppliers in a tiny shed in Sweden. That man is Leif Tufvesson and his microfactory in a little village called Angelholm, two hours south of Volvo central in Gothenburg is called Caresto AB.
