Behold: the 1965 Griffith Series 200 – a TVR Grantura with a Ford V8 engine designed to take on the all conquering AC Cobra. The combination of powerful engine and extreme lightweight made for a 0-100km/h time of under 5 seconds – which was quite something in the 1960s.
This prototype (with the ultra low chassis number of 200/5/002, ie. number 2 of 200 made) goes to auction this summer (COVID-19-permitting).
