Just like that, perhaps the greatest performance car of our time, the GMA T.50, will reach the end of its production this July, concluding a 100-car run that began in early 2023.

The T.50 was unveiled almost five years ago before making its public debut at the 78th Goodwood Members’ Meeting in October 2021.

Then came our world-exclusive drive in November 2023, and the conclusion from Top Gear's own Ollie Marriage was as follows: “This is a car that reaches the parts no other can. A symphony of engineering purity, weight-saving purges and mechanical artistry. It will almost certainly never be bettered.”

In fact, the only real shortcoming is a lack of cupholders. Small price to pay in return for the best driver’s car… in the world.

Let's run through the numbers, of old times' sake: a Cosworth-developed 3.9-litre nat asp V12, a kerb weight of 997kg, and a pure-as-you-like six-speed manual ‘box. It’ll top out at 226mph thanks to outputs of 664bhp and 353lb ft. No e-motor assistance here either, which may be a big reason why you lot voted it as your favourite V12 production car right now.

GMA’s factory will only be quiet for a brief period, because the company has announced that its Special Vehicles (GMSV) division is preparing to reveal its first two supercars at the Monterey Car Week in August.

Phillip Lee, the CEO of the Gordon Murray Group, said: “We are excited to offer customers the opportunity to create the bespoke supercar of their dreams with the GMSV design and engineering teams. We’re also enthusiastic to show the world’s automotive fans our most unique expressions of the Gordon Murray Automotive ethos through GMSV.”

Goodwood will also celebrate 60 years of Gordon Murray’s work at the Festival of Speed this year, where key models from the legendary South African's career will feature. Those include the Brabham BT46B Formula One fan car, the McLaren F1 GTR Long Tail, and the softer version of the T.50, the T.33. There might even be a spicier version of that on show.

“I can barely believe it's been 60 years I’ve been designing and engineering race and road cars,” said Gordon Murray. “I can’t wait to reminisce with the thousands of fans at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. The GMSV double debut that follows just a month later will offer customers, old and new, even more ways to be part of our celebration of cars and driving.”
