History
Ascari Cars, a British maker founded in 1995 and based in Banbury, announced the A10 as its second model after the KZ1. The A10 was a road-going version of the car Ascari ran in the Spanish GT series, with a claimed 600 hp from a 5-litre V8 and a claimed top speed of 220 mph.
The build was planned at 50 cars, hand-built at Banbury, with a six-speed manual standard and a sequential gearbox as an option. The maker described the A10 as a more aggressive-looking car than the KZ1.
Top Gear's Power Lap table lists the A10 at 1 min 17.3 s around its test track.
