Marcos Mantis XP
An outrageous, breathtaking and unique car; with a stressed plywood monocoque construction (yeah, plywood!), and clear platic sides and roof.
Powered by a BRM-Repco V8 F1 engine, and sporting a full Cooper F1 suspension, the car could hang with the best of its time. Raced once at the Spa 1000 km in 1968, but the car succumbed to electrical problems and never raced again.

The mighty BRM H-16 engine, first built in 1966. This strange, complex, engine consists of two 1.5 liter 16 valve 180 degree V8’s, placed on top of each other, forming the unique ‘H-16’ shape. It produced some 405 horsepower at 10500 revs, but it was terribly over-weight, and very unreliable. To top it all off, it was very difficult to drive, due to a lack of torque. Jackie Stewart is believed to have said “This piece of metal is better used as a ship’s anchor, than as a power plant”. The H-16 powered the BRM P83’s and the single P115 in 1967.
