Ginetta G33 Club

Automobiles

The Ginetta G33 Club was a longer-wheelbase, lower-priced version of the G33 sports car, announced as Ginetta came out of financial trouble in 1992. Wikipedia's article on the Ginetta G27, G33 and G34 says it was also known as the G33 Series 2, was built in small numbers from late 1992 and came with either the Rover V8 or Ford's 1.8 litre 16-valve Zeta engine, and that the longer wheelbase meant the cut-off windscreen of the first G33 was no longer needed. David Tearle, technical director of Ginetta Cars at the time, instead describes the Club as the entry level four-cylinder Ford Zeta car, shown at the NEC Motor Show beside the improved G33 SC while the company was in receivership. The two accounts differ on whether a V8 was offered, so the engine is recorded with both.
