The Classic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2023 Cars 12 Registration: N/A Chassis No.: TBC Estimate: £22,000 - £28,000 Specialist: Harry Fox-Edwards Telephone No: 07398 872032 Lot 304 1992 Lola T91/50 This Lola T91/50, or ATOL-Judd T95, is a highly-developed ex-F3000 car boasting an illustrious racing heritage that spans decades. Originally an ex-Marco Apicella car, expertly run by Paul Stewart Racing, this machine achieved greatness in its era, becoming the highest-placed Lola in the 1991 International F3000 Championship finishing fifth overall with impressive results, including two second place finishes at Mugello and Autodromo di Pergusa. Notably, it was also utilised as the 1992 Judd test car with none other than the esteemed David Coulthard at the helm. Following its official duties, the car was purchased and meticulously enhanced by ATOL Racing in collaboration with renowned F1 designers and a prestigious hill climb car company, with Andy Priaulx as the development test driver. The monocoque was professionally shortened, resulting in a shortened wheelbase and expertly-revised suspension, now with a lowered steering rack and a short-ratio gearbox, promising a hugely competitive car when finished. To cater to different track conditions, an alternative nose cone and F1 rear wheels are supplied with the car. Throughout the late-1990s and early-2000s, this Lola dominated the British Hillclimb Championship, piloted by illustrious drivers such as Keith Watts, Amanda Furby, Martin Groves, and Roger Moran. The original Mugen MF308 engine was replaced with a more powerful Judd KV, a modification that remained throughout the car’s hill climb career. Sold ‘complete less engine’, the car remains equipped with essential components including a dash, data logger, power module, loom, starter motor, dampers, fuel system, and radiator. A bespoke Lola casing houses the recently rebuilt and complete Hewland FGB gearbox. It’s ready to be fitted with a Judd KV engine and the fitting kit is included along with numerous additional fittings and fasteners for the new owner’s convenience. Recently refinished in its iconic Labatts livery, the car has been meticulously repainted and vinyled during the summer of 2023 as a wonderful ode to its original racing days. Immaculately-presented, this exceptional car requires minimal work to return to the hills or track, offering exceptional performance with historical significance. With the inclusion of pre-1990 F3000 cars in the new HSCC Formula Libre Trophy debuting at Silverstone Festival 2023, the scope for circuit racing in addition to thundering up the hills make this good-looking Lola a strong contender for a reasonable way into classic single-seat racing. Ex-Marco Apicella F3000 car developed by Andy Priaulx as a quick hill climb car. On offer ‘complete less engine’ and smartly refinished in its original Labatts livery.
