Tramontana Sports Car

The Tramontana is described as “half jet fighter, half grand prix car”. Retailing at £500,000 ($1,000,000) I would describe it as expensive!

However, for your money you get to boast that your Tramontana is one of only 12 on the planet. Although resembling a F1 car, you do have the option of a one or two seat configuration that will propel you to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds reaching a top speed of 220 mph.

Features include:

• 720bhp twin-turbo V12 engine is positioned behind the driver.

• Carbon fibre monocoque chassis and body.

• 20 inch magnesium wheels and carbon ceramic brakes the car is ultra light.

• Chassis numbers are replaced by a line of verse from a specially composed poem.

• Removable canopy.

• The cockpit includes vintage racer style dials and switches.

• The cars are tailored to the physical shape of the owner.

• Internal finish can be camel leather, snake skin and gold.

• Front and rear aerofoils are designed for optimum aerodynamic efficiency and keep the Tramontana unrivalled grip.

Tramontana means a “wind that sweeps over Catalonia for few days every year”. How apt!
