Can't really comment on the logic of the car's original importation, perhaps the regs for the spec series were not yet finalised, or perhaps they had other intentions with the car. Couldn't track down the original owner to ask.
Several Tiga S2000's were actually built under license here for the same race series mentioned in my previous posts. One or two were even close to Group C spec and raced in the year end int. races at Kyalami. If I recall correctly, around 10 were built of which at least 5 or 6 are still around. Mel Lahner was the designer /constructor of the Lant, which was a close copy of the F.Atlantic Ralt. I am not aware that any Lant sports cars were built, although it is possible the several of the Tigas had Lant components . |

Fausto I recall the Lant C2 car too, and the fact it was based on a Ralt RT4.

Hi,
I guess it's a bit late to replay on this thread? But what I would like to share is that I am the Swede that keeps the remainings from Nykjaers C2 car. Any restoration hasn't started yet. Unfortunately it is only the bodywork and chassi (with some small components) and the Fia paper that are left of it. Since Onni Kreivi crashed the car at some occation and it cought fire. I also have a complete set of moulds for it. :-) I also have a 'second' car using the same body shape/moulds (long tail though) which was build by a Swedish guy named Jan Lundegård. The car was never finninshed but its a rolling monocoque chassi (a'la porsche 956/962). They are both for sale for the moment. Thanks Peter |

Nykjaer: a Danish Group C
Just to remind the good folks that Danes and Swedes were not the only ones
building Group C cars back in the Eighties... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ufv9SjDsBAE Apologies for the comments being in Norwegian only, but it does show the whole story of the Cheek C88 from its inception in 1886 to its demise against the Donington pit wall in an Interserie race in 1994. |
