Got a spare R24.6m? Then the new Lanzante 95-59 could be yours

British automotive engineering firm Lanzante has revealed its new limited run 95-59 supercar at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The car's cryptic name pays tribute to the Lanzante-run McLaren F1 GTR that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1995. The '59' refers to the number of units planned for production. Built on a current McLaren platform and clad in exposed 'Ueno Grey' carbon fibre bodywork, the 95-59 features a three-seat layout with the driver positioned centrally — a clear nod to the iconic McLaren F1. It also offers space for luggage and a generous cruising range, giving it real-world usability beyond pure track-day thrills. Tipping the scales at just 1,250kg and riding on staggered lightweight forged aluminium wheels (19" front, 20" rear), the 95-59 is full of interesting design details: dihedral doors, a floating active rear wing, glass roof panels and a centrally mounted titanium exhaust inspired by the 'brutalist organic forms' of the fifth-generation F-22 fighter jet. Hidden from view but just as impressive are Inconel exhaust headers, titanium secondary and tailpipes, titanium body fixings and gold-plated heat shielding throughout the engine bay and exhaust system (another clear homage to the legendary F1). Power comes from a 4.0 l twin-turbocharged V8 producing a claimed 633kW and 880Nm. That gives the 95-59 a power-to-weight ratio of 522kW per tonne. Impressive. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via a seven-speed SSG gearbox. While Lanzante hasn't released any official performance figures yet, expect it to be ludicrously fast — as it should be, given its equally ludicrous £1,020,000 (R24.6m) price tag.
