Creating a unique car and redefining the approach to collaborative projects. In partnership DMC, Cosworth, T3DMC & ASM
About us
Simply we intend to restore, re-imagine and rebuild Number 148 of the 500 Sierra Cosworth RS500’s built and to give it a modern second life. The RS500 is already an iconic car and our plans are audacious for some people, but our viewpoint is to give fans the chance to see the RS500 differently, with a modern eye, even those who weren’t born when the car was originally produced but have a connection with cars and modern ideas. So 148 will be a one-of-one carbon bodied lightweight RS500 that we have called the Carbon Piranha. Thinking big needs relationships and I’ve worked with amazingly talented and cool people through my career and now is the time to bring these stars to Vision148, and that is what we are doing. At the heart of the project will be collaborations with partners and our fans to help this vision come to life. We are not the first to build a car or a company around an automotive icon from the recent past but we intend to challenge the way this type of project is done. We are shifting gears to do things a bit different and leaning in to new and progressive ideas by testing novel ways to maximise the digital opportunities out there including manufacturing, funding and supply chain, combined with full transparency of the build for fan interaction and a unique ownership opportunity of the finished car. The evolution of this project is a result of many years of experience and learning, but more recently eight months of intense defining and project evolution to now being able to announce our intensions. This needs to be right, it needs to be bigger than just a vision but a tangible success so we will need your help as well… and in return there will be a very special opportunity.
