History

Sue Winter and Colin Winter, who previously worked for Jaguar Cars , founded the company in 1987 in Corby , Northamptonshire . They started with the production of automobiles and kits . The brand name was Silhouette . By 1989 ended production.  Overall, only about 23 had emerged. 

The only model was the SC 5000 S . This was the replica of the Lamborghini Countach . A spaceframe frame with steel frame formed the base. Then a coupe body made of fiberglass was mounted. Various V6 , V8 and V12 engines powered the vehicles.

There was no link to Silhouette Cars Limited , which used the same brand name in the 1970s.
