One man and one mission \u2014 to find the slickest supercar, get it to Cyprus, and hit the sunny streets of the Mediterranean island in style. But, ambition never comes without its challenges, and this anonymous buyer faced a few before his dream became reality. Finding the unique supercar was one thing, but how would he get it from Great Britain over to Cyprus? Take a look at how this supercar enthusiast shipped not one, but two BAC Mono supercars to his sunny new home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Quest Begins…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Our character in question has an undeniable passion for these slick, sexy supercars. Understandably, with their authentic style, outstanding performance and adrenaline-inducing speeds of more than 300km\/h. This thrillseeker was now on the look-out for his next investment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like any car, supercars require upkeep and often modification. This buyer wanted to avoid that and find something that worked and was ready for action immediately. With a trusted track car (1997 Subaru Impreza) and a reliable road car (2001 Impreza STi) already part of his collection, he was seeking something unique that would be suitable for both terrains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
The search began, but the buyer was struggling to find something that really revved his engine. The usual go-to supercars\u2014although highly impressive\u2014seemed too ordinary. That, and the cost of replacement parts seemed a bigger risk than he was willing to take. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He decided to turn to the more dedicated end of the market, which was Caterhams and Ariel Atoms. These gorgeous supercars feature many bespoke parts and the main components such as the engine and gearbox were from normal manufacturers like Ford and Honda which lowered their overall price and cost for any necessary repairs. But, he still didn\u2019t feel he\u2019d found his next racer. Until he spotted the BAC Mono supercar for sale… <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meet the BAC Mono Supercar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Single seater, equipped with F3 technology and still based on the humble Ford Duratec engine\u2014it was the obvious choice. Now his mission was stepping into fifth gear as he went out to seek the perfect BAC mono for his Cypriot racing-spree. His luck was in when a car appeared on the Collecting Cars website. One of the first BAC mono supercars to be built for customers back in 2013, and well-known for its appearance in the film The Rain<\/em>, the unique blue bullet took the prize. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With reduced braking distances and weight transfer, sharper turn-in, better rotation at the apex, and better traction out of corners, the Mono is the most formidable force on the track. Designed with a Hewland F3 gearbox, Sachs dampers, and AP brakes \u2014 this buyer couldn\u2019t resist the rebellious racecar. But, now he has the car, how would he ship it to Cyprus<\/a>? This is where we at Autoshippers<\/a> come in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
