Geneva Motor Show 2009
Spyker C8 Aileron (scroll down to read more)
The C8 Aileron is the production version of Spyker’s second-generation sports car, the concept of which was unveiled at last year’s Geneva show. Spyker is a relatively young company, formed in 1999 to make exclusive premium sports cars (although it takes its name from a Dutch company originally founded in 1880). Founder and company boss Victor Muller notes that the new design was heavily inspired by the original marque’s aviation heritage, even the name, he says, pays tribute to this. ‘Aileron is the car which will turn the Spyker towards long-awaited profitability,’ he says.
Sales May 2009, Price around €190,000 (£173,000)
