Left-hand drive, UK-registered Generation 2 SRT10. One of only 840 producedFinished in its original factory Steel Grey Metallic with Viper Stripes, and a smart two-tone interior8-litre, V10 producing 450bhp and465lbft of torque fed througha six-speed, Borg-Warner T-56 manual gearboxFitted with an uprated stereo system with iPod and Bluetooth connectivity,Cat 1 alarm system,battery conditionerOnly 15,700 miles supported by MOTs,its USA service records, aCarfaxvehicle history report and the owner's fileNew rear tyres and anew battery within the last 1,000 miles. Two sets of keys and a fresh MOT prior to the saleWonderfully politically incorrect, the Dodge Viper was launched in January 1992. A pure American muscle car, it was conceived by Bob Lutz, Tom Gale, Francois Castaing, and Carroll Shelby. Built around a tubular steel backbone chassis equipped with all-round double-wishbone independent suspension, vented disc brakes and power-assisted rack and pinion steering, it did without ABS or a traction control system. Extensively reworked by Lamborghini (another Chrysler subsidiary at the time), its 8-litre, V10 former truck engine gained a new aluminium block and cylinder heads. Early cars were quoted as developing some 400bhp and 465lbft of torque, although these numbers would rise over time (the 2000 car featured here produces just North of 450bhp) and the efforts of all these horses were corralled through a beefy six-speed Borg-Warner T-56 manual gearbox. Clad in lightweight resin transfer-moulded glass fibre body panels, the Targa-roofed RT/10 boasted a 0-60mph time of 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 165mph. Only recentlyout of production, the Viper has long since attracted a cult following which will only continue to gather pace.This 2000, left-hand drive, UK-registered Dodge Viper Roadster 8-litre, SRT10 is a Generation 2 model and is one of only 840 produced. It's finished in its original factory colour, the evocatively named Steel Grey Metallic with Viper Stripes, and a smart two-tone interior. In addition to the convertible soft-top, there is a colour-coded hardtop (difficultto find now as they were a 6,000 option atthe time) and rear exhaust outlets were originally specified. The cars equipment level is too long to list here but it includes an uprated stereo system with iPod and Bluetooth connectivity, a Cat 1 alarm systemand a battery conditioner. It's supplied with its American Carfax statement showing that itleft Los Angeles having coveredonly 7,571 miles with its two American owners.Upon arrival in the UK, it was looked aftermainly by Falcon Engineering in the North East, where it was meticulously maintained including a full service, transmission service and new rear tyres (less than1,000 miles ago) before being bought by our vendor in 2017to add to hisown collection.He has since used it little, but it has been serviced and checked overby his company maintenance team within the last eighteen months. Currently onSORN, it will come to the sale freshly valeted and with a new MOT.You may ask yourself if you really need 8-litres of V10, nearly 500 horsepower, tarmac-shredding lumps of torque, and only two seats, and realistically, you probably don't, but then again, they are going up in value and you're only young twice!
