Cheshire-born brothers Neill and Ian Briggs have made a dream ambition come true. The BAC MONO (as in monoposto, or single seat) was designed to bring formula race car levels of handling, performance and thrill to the public road.
MONO is also the perfect trackday tool, racing school car, one-make series racer, etc. At 520 bhp per ton, its power to weight ratio surpasses that of the Bugatti Veyron and it can accelerate to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds, 100 mph in 6.7 seconds and on to a top speed of 170 mph.
The car is also an object of engineering perfection and desire, courtesy of the Briggs brothers’ 15 years experience of the motor industry, during which time they’ve handled design and engineering consultancy projects for the likes of Ford Motor Company, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche, through their company Adaptive Space.
Ian Briggs says "MONO is the culmination of a 12-year dream for us – the car we wanted to own but nobody else made." Neill Briggs adds "All cars are built to order on a first-come, first-served basis and our flexible production facility has the capacity to manufacture between 50 and 100 vehicles per year – or more if demand requires. All I can currently say is, the early response has been extremely encouraging."
Price: £79,950 (including UK taxes).
