Saleen

Leveraging his strong automotive background and racing experience in both the Formula Atlantic and CART Series, Steve Saleen set out in 1984 to build Saleen Mustangs from the ground up to achieve a bolder look and superior handling and power. Today, Saleen is the largest specialty vehicle manufacturer in the world.

TVR

TVR made news in 1995 when its TVR Speed Eight V8 engine became the world's first racing engine to be de-tuned and installed in a road car - the TVR Cerbera.

Wiesmann

The company was founded in 1985 by German brothers Martin and Friedhelm Wiesmann, whose childhood dream was to design a tailor-made car that they had developed themselves. The company's logo, a gecko, reflects their cars' ability to "stick to the road like a gecko to the wall."
