Earlier this year Reynard disappeared, having once been the world’s most prolific maker of racing cars. I’ve known Adrian Reynard for more than twenty years and so I was personally sad when Reynard folded. The historian in me was also sad because Adrian was the last of a great English...
From a European perspective, during the 1990s Reynard had expanded as far as it could go with the various F3...

Bicester is a small market town 12 miles north of Oxford. For centuries nothing much remarkable happened, then an estate of small factory units was built to encourage light industry. First March, then Reynard, turned the town into the world capital of customer racing cars. More than 3,000 single-seaters were...
