1978 BRM Type 25 Formula 1

William I’Anson Ltd are delighted to offer for sale the BRM Type 25 Formula 1.

Officially backed by BRM and parent company Rubery Owen, the reconstruction of BRM’s iconic Type 25 front engine Grand Prix car was started in the 1960s, some time before those made by Tom Wheatcroft.

Built using a combination of original parts and parts supplied by BRM, with chassis work and assembly by the original BRM staff in Bourne, the home of BRM.

Raced with many victories in historic racing from 1978, and winner of the 1980 French Grand Prix support race which led to the formation of the HGPCA.

Maintained by BRM experts Hall & Hall and fitted with a new Hall & Hall BRM 2.5 litre engine, producing a very impressive 285hp.

A very competitive, and in the right hands potentially race winning, front engined Grand Prix car with eligibility for the HGPCA and Goodwood. Arguably the fastest of the front-engined Grand Prix cars.

Winner of the Richmond Trophy race at the 2021 Goodwood Revival in BRM's 70th Anniversary Year.
