Why it matters
The Sarthe was a Dutch attempt at a boutique mid-engined supercar, with a wedge body evoking 1980s Le Mans cars. A planned run of about five cars a year rising to 12 did not happen.
How rare is it?
Six separate kinds of rarity – never combined into one number.
Each kind of rarity is rated separately and never combined.
02Production & history
Production
Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productioncars known to have been built (one light blue, one orange) | 21 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
A pre-production prototype of 510 hp without supercharger was shown at Top Marques Monaco in 2014; the production-spec car followed in September 2014 with a supercharged 6.3-litre GM V8 at 622 hp. Vencer quoted a price of 270,882 euros and a rate of one car per month, which was not achieved.
The company's fate is unclear; the two cars likely remain with the company.
