Lafirme à l'Hélice l'a présentée lors du concours d'élégance de la Villa d'Este en Italie. Avec 100 kg de moins et 40 chevaux de plus, cette nouvelle M4

After looking at the new Trident Iceni Grand Tourer, it's obvious that Europe gets all the cool cars. Sexy styling? Check. Amazing performance? Yup. Torquey, fuel-efficient diesel engine? Unequivocally, yes! This built-to-order coupe apparently has it all for the performance enthusiast who wants it all, and the car will be on display at the Salon Privé 2012 next month in London. Starting at £75,000 roughly $119,000 USD, the Iceni Grand Tourer is a small two-seater sports car that looks more like a concept car than anything else, with a split open top almost like the original Batmobile, a dark, matte exterior and a contrasting bright-red interior. Overall, the handsome design reminds us a bit of the Pontiac Solstice. Only in this car's case, it's like a Solstice with premium touches and a Duramax diesel under the hood... on steroids. A quick rundown of the car's spec sheet reads like a supercar, with performance numbers that include a 0-60 time of just seconds and a top speed of almost 200 mph from a turbocharged diesel engine that can run on almost anything, including bio diesel, mineral diesel, palm oil and linseed oil. In standard form, this engine produces 430 horsepower and 950 lb-ft of torque, but even more impressive is the fact that 700 of these lb-ft are available at just 980 rpm. At this low engine speed, the Trident Iceni geared to run at 70 mph. The company says that's good enough for almost 70 mpg and can give the coupe a driving range of more than 2,000 miles on one tank. Those wanting even more get-up-and-go can choose the optional upgrade that brings 660 hp and 1050 lb-ft of torque to the table. There is no word as to how much this sporty roadster weighs, but this kind of power would make a school bus fun to drive. Scroll down for the official press release. Show full PR text ALL-NEW GROUND BREAKING BRITISH SPORTS CAR –THE TRIDENT ICENI – CONFIRMED FOR SALON PRIVÉ London, 22 August 2012 – Iconic British sports car maker, Trident, will display its all-new Iceni Grand Tourer at Salon Privé 2012, held at West London's Syon Park from the 5th to 7th September. Beautiful, innovative and unique, the Iceni's outstanding performance and vital statistics are thanks to Trident's patented Torque Multiplication technology. With a top speed of nearly 200mph and a 0-60mph sprint in just seconds, the Iceni is built to order in Norfolk and priced from £75,000. A mid-front mounted turbo-diesel is used to capitalize on the Torque Multiplication technology, capable of running on mineral diesel, bio diesel, palm oil and linseed oil, it delivers 430bhp and a staggering 950lbs ft of torque at under 3250rpm. An option to upgrade to 660bhp is also available, delivering 1050lbs ft of torque. At a constant 70mph the specially tuned engine runs at just 980rpm, produces 700lbs ft of torque, is capable of and will keep going for over 2000miles on one full tank of diesel. Trident Sports Cars managing director, Phillip Bevan, says "We are very pleased to be at Salon Privé which this year is a great celebration of all things British and home grown talent - something we feel very strongly about at Trident. It is also a place where sports cars and super cars of this calibre are sold, and we look forward to taking new orders for the Iceni at Syon Park this September."

The Ice When 26 February 2022 Where Lake St Moritz, Switzerland The Ice is a concours d’elegance quite unlike any other – an event that’s cool’ in literally every sense. Its unique status comes from the fact that it is held entirely on the surface of a frozen lake, so you’ll be able to see the cars on display about as far from their natural habitat as they’ll get. And the scenery is breathtaking. The slippery surface provides something of a challenge for drivers and exhibitors, too! For full details, click here 2.

Techno-Classica Essen When 23-27 March 2022 Where Essen, Germany We’re big fans of Essen’s Techno-Classica – it not only features the usual indoor car show fare, such as club stands and manufacturers and, of course, cars, but it also boasts a huge marketplace. Whatever your focus may be, there’s plenty to look at in the 20 halls the event has to offer, making it more than worthy of inclusion in this list. You might not leave with your next classic, but we guarantee that whatever happens, you most certainly won’t get bored. For full details, click here 6. Goodwood Members’ Meeting When 9-10 April 2022 Where Goodwood Estate, West Sussex, UK The Goodwood Estate hosts the first of its annual events with the 79th Members’ Meeting, which returns to its springtime slot for 2022.

Formula Three, Touring Cars, Can-Ams and more have also been confirmed for this mouth-watering timetable. It’s the more exclusive of Goodwood’s circuit-based events, because tickets are available only to those who are GRRC or Fellowship members.

Brooklands Easter Classic Gathering When 16 April 2022 Where Brooklands, Surrey, UK Sadly, thanks to COVID, Brooklands’ traditional New Year’s Day classic car meet was cancelled for 2022 – but the good news is that a later, Easter get-together has joined the calendar. And if you had a ticket for the 1 January bash, that will automatically be valid for its 16 April replacement. It is hoped the Easter Classic Gathering will attract classic car owners in the same way the New Year’s Day meetings have done, with all cars built prior to 31 July 1992 invited to park on site. Gates open at 9am, and there’s access to the museum from 10am, too. For full details, click here 8. Salon Privé London When 21-23 April 2022 Where Royal Hospital Chelsea, London, UK Salon Privé London is a brand-new event for 2022, coming to the South Lawn of the Royal Hospital Chelsea.

It will culminate in the Concours de Vente, where the 60 cars in the spotlight will all be for sale. For full details, click here 9. Drive It Day When 24 April 2022 Where Various locations across the UK Drive It Day is all about celebrating our classics and sharing them with our friends, families and communities, however and wherever we can.

World Cup Rally 50th +2 Anniversary When 1 May 2022 Where Gaydon, Warwickshire, UK If at first you don’t succeed… Yes, this peculiarly named event is because the half-century of the London to Mexico World Cup Rally should have been marked in 2020 – but we all know what happened. Back in 1970, 106 crews tackled this gruelling, 16,000-mile rally won by Hannu Mikkola and Gunnar Palm in a Ford Escort. This long-awaited celebration at the British Motor Museum should be something special. For full details, click here 13. How Many Left? When 8 May 2022 Where Aberdeenshire, Scotland, UK This event claims to be unique in Scotland. The Grampian Transport Museum in Alford, about a 30-mile drive west of Aberdeen, is hosting How Many Left? this May. It is a celebration of once everyday cars that are now seldom seen – in fact, today some are more rare than contemporary, limited-run exotica. To be eligible, it must be a car once commonplace of which fewer than 500 survivors remain in the UK. And for 2022, there will be a special display of BMC/BL classics.

Goodwood Festival of Speed When 23-26 June 2022 Where Goodwood Estate, West Sussex, UK The Goodwood Festival of Speed tends to be a touch more modern than the Members Meeting or Revival it’s sandwiched between, but there’s still lots for the classic car fan to enjoy. The famous hill is tackled by new and old vehicles alike, and the forest rally stage is awash with them, too, so you’ll get many chances to see icons from years gone by in action – and a great deal of those will be present as static displays, allowing you to get up close and personal.
