yellow: yes
mvs: yes ("Manufacture de Voitures de Sports" - "sportscar factory")
ventura: no....venturi
atlantic: no....maybe a venturi 400 (400bhp)

i know lot more about english production than you about poor french production

it was a factory gentlemen driver challenge car during the 90s, great car: V6 PRV with twin turbos, 400 bhp....some were road legal.

there was also a venturi 260 spc ("sans pot catalitique"...."without cat system", v6 prv with 260 bhp to end range during the beginnning of the 90s.

it was about the same as Noble but 30 years ago...the Atlantic was the last venturi with modern spec and design, trying to save the factory from the "crisis" of the 90's.

the company is now owned by a guy from monaco, who is trying to keep the brand alive by building electric cars....maybe same story for graham nearn selling caterham to ali ansard....or the russian TVR team

this is for the history of one (very) few great french car company

I tried a 260 way back and loved it and that was yellow as well....a great car that was a real rival to the Lotus Esprit back them.

Loved the Atlantic but the new electric car . Have they sold any as it's been around a few years now and very expensive as I remember.

Great vid!

It's always interesting to see our normal cars on a track also used by F1 machinery. Check out the massive difference in attack, especially the chicanes. That Nurburgring Chicane is mental in an F1 car ..
