Venturi 400 GT Trophy #051 ‘Bertrand Lavier’

Only 73 units were produced, and ours is chassis number 0051, with a known racing history on Europe's greatest circuits.

Chassis: VK8 CHL 611 92 CE 0051
In 1992, 1993 and 1994, it distinguished itself in the Gentlemen Drivers Trophy, then continued its career in 1995 in the Philippe Charriol Supersports Trophy. In the hands of Belgian driver Eric de Doncker, it took 5th place in Group C and established itself as one of the most competitive cars.

Maintained by Alvan Engineering, the Belgian Venturi importer, it competed in a few Belcar races in the early 2000s before undergoing a complete restoration at the SRO Race Centre in Le Castellet in 2016. Today, it is in near-new condition, ready to return to the track or take pride of place in a collection.
The restoration was carried out with meticulous attention to detail: completely redone bodywork, new Garrett turbos, Lexan windows, headlights, fuel pumps, overhauled engine, reconditioned shock absorbers. A few discreet improvements – reinforced hubs, Unibal suspension, optimised lubrication system – ensure even greater reliability without betraying the original spirit.
With 400 horsepower from its twin-turbo V6 engine and a weight of only 1,070 kg, it remains a competitive and reliable car. It is eligible for the biggest historic events.

At the request of the current owner, the car was recently painted by French visual artist Bertrand Lavier. A unique work by the artist, this Venturi is intended as a tribute to the ‘Art Cars’ that raced at the time.
