Description[]
The Gordon Murray Automotive T.50s Niki Lauda is a track-focused version of the T.50, a high-performance limited-production three-seat sports car designed and manufactured by Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA), intended to be the spiritual successor to the McLaren F1. Designed by Gordon Murray, the T.50S is powered by a 4.0L Cosworth GMA V12 and features a fan on the rear sucking air to provide the car with significant levels of ground effect, similar to its road going counterpart. The car is named for three-time Formula One World Champion Niki Lauda who drove a Formula One car featuring a similar fan system which Murray also designed. 25 cars are to be produced, each for £3.1 million before taxes; it is also intended to have its own racing series. Each chassis is individually given a commemorative name to signify major races won by Gordon Murray-designed cars; the first twenty-four cars commemorate Formula One victories while the final car commemorates the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
The base of the casting reads GMA T.50s.
