    Martaré for the anoraks

    This is might be a hard nut to crack, so anoraks among you listen up: who has ever heard of the Dutch 70s sports car Martaré?
    Little is known about this car, I once saw a picture of it and I reckon its design was loosely based on the Ford GT40.
    I would like to rediscover this car, but no-one seems to know anything about it.

    can't find n e thing on the car, when u google it, it just brings up a rock band or some guy in the 1900's.

    Hi, there, great to hear from a family who was actually involved in the building of an exclusive car. Wouldn't it be amazing to have another batch of your cars? But would it still be feasible these days anyway?
    We would like to know more technical details of the car.
    Is it correct that the cars were originally built in Aalsmeer?

    Seeing the background in the first pics,it definately is Dutch

    Very nice to see someone that is closely involved in the thing to show up on UCP. It actually shows that UCP is pretty well known in the world

    Yuri, do you have an actual car left or just the molds ? I'd love to see one in person D' (and UCP) HQ arent too far away from you

    I saw one up for sale in a Dutch classic car magazine. Don't remember which one though, as I quickly leafed through it in the supermarket (which I sometimes do)

    Hello, Wilbert!

    Of course, any pictures would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
    It would be also interesting to hear an owner's opinion on the car.
