CREATED IN TOTAL secrecy during the last two years by The Invicta Car Company Limited, the Invicta S1 2-seater GT sports coupe bears the name of the once famous and highly regarded British marque of the 1930s.
The S1 is designed to be two cars in one; a luxurious Grand Tourer and a no-compromise sports car with the potential to become a class-winning GT racing car. Able to deliver exhilarating performance (0-to-60 mph in 5.0 seconds), the S1 is also tractable and practical for everyday driving, with a spacious, leather-trimmed cabin, a large boot and a 100-litre fuel tank giving owners the ability to cover long distances, comfortably at speed.
The Invicta S1 is the world’s first car to feature a one-piece carbon-fibre bodyshell bonded to the steel tube spaceframe chassis to create an immensely strong, but lightweight, structure. Hand-built by a small team of highly skilled technicians, the S1 will be produced in strictly limited numbers at Invicta’s Wiltshire facility. The order book will be opened at the Motor Show with deliveries scheduled to begin during the first quarter of 2003.
