If you’re interested in a new Ford GT and have the means to pay for one, you’re currently of luck, as the window for purchase applications closed on 12 May 2016. But after more than 6,500 applications were received, Ford confirmed the GT’s initial two-year production run will be extended to four. Year three of production will support those who were already on the waiting list, while applications will open for year four's allowance in early 2018. And that’s be...

While a full equipment list has yet to be published, the GT will come with leather seats, sat nav, climate control and the usual array of electric gizmos you’d expect on a supercar. There are eight different colour options, four interior themes and ten designs of aluminium or carbon-fibre 20-inch wheels.  You can choose from eight different colour options, eight different ‘racing stripe’ decals running down the centre of the car and three different treatments for ...

The Ford GT's interior is certainly less flashy than that of a Ferrari, but it's far from bland. It has fully digital instruments, which you can customise depending on the type of driving you’re doing.        Like other modern supercars, there are no indicator or windscreen-wiper stalks, giving you unimpeded access to the gearshift paddles. Buyers can specify gloss, matte or Shadow Black paint finishes for the exposed carbon-fibre trim on the ...

Few supercars have a more dramatic look than the new Ford GT. It has a wedged-shaped profile that incorporates some clever aerodynamic features. Huge buttresses that connect to the roof and rear wings channel air as efficiently as possible around the car, which has been influenced by the styling of F1 machines and Le Mans prototype racers. Like the original GT40 – named for its 40-inch height – this new GT is low and incredibly sleek. The body is made from carbon fibre and the ...

This year marked 50 years since Ford's legendary win at the Le Mans 24 Hours race. Ford entered four cars, run by Chip Ganassi Racing in the GTE Pro class. Over 24 hours, the three cars that finished covered 340 laps and finished first, third and fourth in class.     Ford's global development boss, Raj Nair, said: "As we developed the Ford GT, from the outset, we wanted to ensure we had a car that has what it takes to return Ford to the world of GT racing. ...

Ford’s engineers have thrown the lot at the development of the Ford GT. At its heart is a 3.5-litre EcoBoost V6 petrol engine with two turbochargers for extra power.     The engine is based on that found in the Ford GT Le Mans race car, but Ford promises the one fitted to the road-going GT will have a wider power band, making it more useable on the road. And despite the GT having more than 600bhp on tap, Ford has kept an eye on fuel economy. The engine is paire...
