Just seen what appeared to be a road going G56 on the Motorist FB page.

Nothing specific I could see on the Ginetta web page.

Anyone shed any light?

Hi Jerry,
You're very welcome to come and visit us; I see you are Yorkshire based.
Happy to show you around the car.
Cheers

Assume you work for LT then Jamie?

A good pal of mine raced G55s GT4s successfully with you and also worked for a while there. AB?

I wasn’t seeing things then?

I "Think" they're hoping to bring one to G-Fest at Silverstone 1st-4th June along with a remastered G10 and an Akula but that's a tall order to get all 3 there

Derived from the most successful GT4 chassis in history, the Ginetta
G56 GTR car is a bespoke road-going version of the successful G56.
With a 6-speed H pattern Tremec manual gear box inline with a Ginetta
inspired V8 engine, the GTR will give you the closest experience of a
road-going race car.

Saw one of these on the road yesterday, looked surprisingly good. I'm actually tempted to have a serious look at one.

The price of the G10 I got an answer on

Hi Rene

Thank you for your enquiry. We are on the drawing board with the G10 RM which will combine the best heritage from Ginetta will modern running gear/braking system/engine/chassis safety.

The car is expected to be £250k including UK taxes and available from early 2024.
then I wonder what such also lovely looking GTR will cost, guess around the same-ish price?
