Built to dominate in period and still feared in historic racing today, this Cobra combines the legendary AC chassis with a thunderous Ford 289 V8 to create one of the most exciting GT racers ever built.

This particular example was bespoke-built by North Devon Metalcraft for a highly competitive racer and has proven itself at the very highest level, taking multiple victories in Equipe Classic Racing and the Masters Gentlemen Drivers series in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

With a fresh 460 hp Warrior-built V8, FIA HTP, UK road registration and an extensive spares package, it is ready for Goodwood, Spa, Peter Auto, Masters, or wherever you dare unleash it.

โ–ช FIA HTP until 2032

The Ginetta G4R "The Giant Slayer" has found a new home.

Small in size, legendary in reputation. This beautifully rebuilt G4R has earned its place as one of the most competitive pre-'66 GT cars on the grid, taking on โ€” and often beating โ€” machines with far more horsepower.

Recently rebuilt by the factory and ready to race, we're delighted that this remarkable piece of British motorsport history is heading to its next custodian.

We wish the new owner many successful laps and unforgettable races. See you on the grid!

Some weekends remind us exactly why we do this. Good times. Great cars. Fast laps.

From the agile Lotus Elite to the versatile Aston Martin DB2/4, the iconic Toyota Corolla and the ever-impressive Chevron B36, it was a weekend filled with beautiful machinery, enthusiastic drivers and everything that makes historic motorsport so special. The pictures tell the story.

Mike had a great race in the Elite that ran very strong and after some suspension setup changes it is now a real race-car. Beautifully neutral, predictable and easy to drive hard.

Until next time, Zandvoort. ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ

Some race cars are fast. Some race cars are successful. And some race cars have raced at Le Mans Classic, been driven by legends, and arrive ready for their next chapter.

This Chevron B36 CH-76-02 is one of the last evolutions of Derek Bennett's iconic 2-litre sports prototypes. Campaigned over the years by racing greats including "Beurlys", Teddy Pilette, Pierre Dieudonnรฉ, and Didier de Radigues, it later competed at Le Mans Classic and other major historic events across Europe.

Now fully recommissioned with:
โ–ช Fresh BDG engine
โ–ช Rebuilt FT200 gearbox
โ–ช New FIA HTP
โ–ช New FIA fuel cell
โ–ช Race-ready condition

Lightweight, agile and beautifully balanced, the Chevron remains one of the purest historic sports racers you can own.
