Description:

Welcome to the advert for my G40 Cup car.

It's a 2019 car, which was raced in GRDC by Harry Mangion (2021 GT5 AM Champion), getting several podium finishes and 1 win at Brands Hatch. Whilst Harry was racing it, it was run by Elite Motorsport. Whilst in his ownership it only did 1 test day.

I then purchased the car in November 2019, intending to race in GRDC in 2020, but decided against that when Covid came along. So I did a couple of test days in 2020, and around 30 miles of road driving.

This year, I've competed in 3 race weekends, in G40 Cup, making my debut at Brands Hatch GP (a last minute decision with no prep at all) with a best finish of 6th. Then came Silverstone GP with a best finish of 5th, and lastly Croft with a best finish of 4th.

The great guys at SVG Motorsport have run the car for me this year, and are running the G40 Cup with factory support for 2023 as part of the Britcar grid. It's also eligible for 750MC Roadsports and BRSCC Clubsport Trophy.

It's easily one of the best G40's out there, and hasn't been involved in any crashes. The only bits of damage the car has ever had is a new rear bumper, courtesy of Ginetta after their guys rolled another G40 into the back of it in the paddock, and 2 new rear wings. The first when Harry spun and clipped it against a barrier, and I then did the same thing at Brands Hatch, with no other damage to the car (very lucky!).

It's fully road legal, with the V5 in my name, and comes with the 17" road legal wheels, which have Michelin Pilot Sports fitted. It's currently on the race spec 15" wheels, which can't accomodate the hand brake caliper, so all you'd need to do to use it on the road is have that fitted, and fit the 17" wheels! It's first MOT will be due in May 2022. As it has air conditioning, it's perfectly usable as a summer weekend toy.

It comes with 1 set of 15" rims fitted with Toyo R888's, all of which are like new. Plus the aforementioned set of road legal 17" rims. I also have another 6 rims fitted with the Toyo's and 1 set fitted with the Michelin race wets available via seperate negotiation.

The fire extingusher was last serviced in May this year (2021), by Merlin Motorsport at Castle Combe.

The seats and harnesses have an expiry date of end of 2023.

It has a mylaps X2 transponder fitted, which has a subscription (transferable to new owner) until May 16th 2024!

Also fitted is a Racelogic Video VBOX Lite, with OLED Driver Display Option, which is worth £1470 (Demon Tweeks price) new! This will be included in the sale if the price is right.

The Ginetta spec for the car reads: 

  • Sealed Ford 1800cc 4-cylinder Zetec producing 135bhp
  • Ginetta throttle body
  • T45 tubular chassis and integral safety cage built to FIA standards
  • FIA approved driver’s seat and harnesses
  • ATL 45 litre FIA approved fuel cell
  • Performance 5 speed syncro-mesh gearbox
  • Sealed Quaife ATB differential
  • Controlled adjustable dampers
  • Rear wing

The car has been great fun, and being designed from the ground up as a racing car, it's a fantastic car to race.

As said, you won't find a better used example of a G40 Cup car. 

Only selling as I'm looking to move up to a G55 or similar to compete in Britcar with. I'm also selling my eco-shuttle which was brand new in December 2019, as it won't be big enough for the G40's replacement. So a deal for the car and trailer is also possible.

Please feel free to get in touch if you're interested. No silly offers though please. If it doesn't sell, I'll just race it in 2022!
