This is a photograph I took at the Donington Park Museum in September 2014.

It's the last car built by
Vanwall, the rear engined 1961 Vanwall VW14, which was built when the old 2½
litre limit for Formula 1 cars was reduced to 1½ litres starting with the 1961 season, and VW14 was built to
contest the 3 litre Intercontinental Formula. The car originally had a 2½ litre
Vanwall engine bored out to 2,605cc and only contested a handful of races
before development was stopped when the Intercontinental Formula didn't catch
on in Europe.
