1965 Landar R6

This car competed in the HSCC Atlantic Computers 2 Litre GT Championship race at the Historic Sports Car Club's Spring Race meeting at Oulton Park in May 1986.

Two brothers, Peter and Clive Radnall came up with the idea of putting a tuned Mini engine in the rear of a lightweight race car and the first of these vehicles was named the Landar R1. A series of cars followed culminating in the Landar R6 and the above car, driven by Alan Dignan at Oulton Park, is the last of ten such cars built by the brothers. According to a previous owner, Graham Nevill, it had a 1,275cc Mini engine with an Arden 8-port crossflow head. When the Radnall brothers ceased production of the cars the moulds were sold in the USA and it is thought that more of the cars were built there.
