Named after a Scottish demon, the Falen is the creation of Gleneagles-based design studio Dowdeswell and Hardie.

At least it will be, once the vehicle gets off the computer screen and onto the road. Lending credibility is the presence of that Judd engine, the GV 5.5L V10 that’s widely used in Le Mans Prototype class cars.

Serious specifications go along with the gravity of 800 horsepower. The ultra-exclusive Falen – only four will be built – will be constructed of carbon fiber and feature a hinged greenhouse like a jet fighter

Measuring less than 4.2 metres long, the Falen is shorter than a Porsche 911 and is aimed at trackday enthusiasts.

A prototype is expected to debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March of 2009, and you can keep an eye on its progress and development via the firm’s website at dowdeswellhardie.com. Via Autoblog / evo uk
