Turner was established in Wolverhampton, England in 1951. It closed its doors in 1966 after its founder, Jack Turner, died. During that time they made some impressive sports cars.
The first Turner cars, the A30 and 950, used a BMC 803cc (in the A30) or 948cc engine. The cars were fiberglass, so the performance, especially in the 948, was impressive for a small displacement car. Top speed was just under 100 MPH and 60 MPH came in around 13 seconds.

This car has a racing history in the UK and US. This car was sold new in the UK as a complete kit. The car was raced in the UK in the 80's and early 90's by two men involved with with the 750 Motor Club. It was exported to the USA in 1996.

Impressive stuff.
The car is being offered by the same person selling the the GSM Dart Alfa 1300. Click here to see the listing.
