    Application for New GT's Coming in November???

    They were very strict it had to be under 1 minute; mine was 59 seconds to be safe :D

    Application for New GT's Coming in November???

    I remember at the unveiling in Detroit (Jan 2015) I filmed a video saying that "they would build the GT for 4.5 years at roughly 250 a year meaning a total of around 1,150 cars to be built". Then of course the initial applications came in for the first 500 cars, of which a further 250 got a...

    NFGT —Common refrain

    Do we have any idea roughly when it might be announced? I ask because it's much more complicated to book air freight and I'm hoping to lock it all down before the year is out.

    NFGT —Common refrain

    When and where?! Serious question, when I fly out of the US in the middle of September my car will still be in California so I could easily keep it there a touch longer then come back for the rally - would be super cool to join everyone with the UK plated one! The import license for the car...

    NFGT —Common refrain

    Absolutely, 100%! I've got air freight booking options in and working on my insurance for the car when it's on US soil but this all looks set to proceed - it seems strange that the car is currently in North America but I'm getting so excited about bringing it back there next year :D

    It's Getting Real Now!

    This was actually something I researched today too, unfortunately with not so positive responses. To temporarily bring a car into the USA from the UK is very easy to do for a tourist visit, equally is it easy to get insurance and have everything correctly done. However, Canada is not the same...

    It's Getting Real Now!

    You are correct, I hadn't seen it on a car other than the paint sample, and I have to report back that there was not a completed Liquid Red car when I was there so I've still only seen body panels rather than a full car. It has to be said that overall it's quite dark inside and my car in the...

    It's Getting Real Now!

    It's a huge thanks from me to Pearce, Jeff and the team at the assembly facility who have forward me a few photos taken on the day. Of course as we've discussed this is far from the norm and not normally possible but they have allowed an exception specifically to share with the audience for...

    NFGT Recall

    From my understanding it's actually more complex than that. He received the car and felt uncomfortable with it so offered it directly to his business partner who took it on the understanding agreement that it wouldn't be sold... but then it appeared on the market very soon thereafter anyway.

    Most miles on a NFGT

    I'm not sure how well that goes down! Hey, I'd be all up for trying though.

    It's Getting Real Now!

    Thanks for this Andre, although the car will be based in the UK, it will occasionally spend time at my place in Frankfurt; stretching legs on the Autobahn and absolutely a few laps of the Ring. Hopefully we can gather them together in the future!

    It's Getting Real Now!

    Back at the airport after a visit today to Markham to see the work in progress! Very different to what I was expecting, more akin to a race team getting things ready than that of a more mainstream soulless factory - which of course is exactly what the car is really about. As described...

    Most miles on a NFGT

    Great to see some real mileage on people's cars, especially considering the lack of luggage space! Nice work guys

    “NEW” Better Photos of the Autodrome Ford GT Owners Watch

    Looks great, good to be able to see the triangular details to the watch face body in your pictures, that don't show up as well in the marketing info. It's definitely on the chunky end but the design characteristics to match with the car like the bezel and chrono buttons are fantastic. You've...

    It's Getting Real Now!

    I believe there is some stock footage I could potentially use in some form but that comes with needing the original copyright owner to sign a contract authorising use etc, it's a bit of a headache
