his Ford GT was launched in 2003/4 as the modern equivalent of the original Ford GT40 of Le Mans fame. The one we have here is probably the most desirable in Europe – endorsed with its aluminium plaque as '001 of 101' exported to Europe. It is powered by a 5.4 litre supercharged V8 engine, producing 550bhp and 500lb of torque. It weighs only 1520kg, hence the straight line 0-62 mph sprint is achieved in just 3.8 seconds, and the car will hit a top speed of 205 mph.
