David Brown Automotive Releases Further Details on Project 2, The Original Remastered
We are proud to announce that we will unveil our all-new model, aptly codenamed Project 2, this week in London. Early teasers for the car confirm that its design will be based on a British automotive icon with a vibrant, retro personality, remastered for the 21st Century.
The top-secret new model, which is the second vehicle to be built by David Brown Automotive in the UK, will sit at a lower price point than our debut model, and will, just like Speedback GT, be available in a fully bespoke specification to suit every customer.
Project 2 will also take significant design cues from the limited production Speedback GT and will be hand-built at our all-new HQ based at Silverstone, which will formally open in summer 2017. Available in a range of trim levels, customers will be able to choose from a brand-new colour palette for the car’s interior and exterior, as well as from a wide range of accessories and options to fit each and every customer’s personality. Confirmed for the private reveal in London, we will be showcasing three cars, including two limited production ‘Inspired by’ special editions.
As a coachbuilder for the 21st century, we will handcraft every Project 2 using traditional coachbuilding methods, much like the acclaimed Speedback GT. Built on a larger scale, we will have the facility to build up to one hundred cars Project 2 cars per year, alongside the continued production of Speedback GT. It will also beautifully showcase our focus on combining modern-day connectivity, technology and reliability with retro, coachbuilt style and design.
“I am delighted to announce that we are launching our new project this week. We have already received a lot of interest in the project, and combined with our recent success with Speedback GT at the Geneva Motor Show last month, 2017 is set to be a great year for the brand,” said David Brown. “The new model takes inspiration from Speedback GT, our very first project, as well as one of my favourite cars ever built. Project 2, like Speedback GT, combines iconic and retro design with traditional coachbuilding and modern technology and connectivity. I can’t wait to show it off!”
