  • The Turner Sports Cars Ltd company was established by Jack Turner near Wolverhampton, England. The 'Turner Cars' were produced between 1951 and 1966 in limited numbers. As well as complete cars, 'Turner Cars' were also available in kit form. Jack Turner had built a series of one-off specials and prepared racing cars from the late 1940s even building his own engines. The first cars for sale were based on one of the specials and consisted of a chassis, independent suspension units using transverse leaf springs and Turner's own alloy wheels. It was up to the customer to arrange engine, transmission and body. Eight are thought to have been made. The company closed in 1966 after the founder had a heart attack. The development cost of a completely new coupĂ© model with a rear mounted Hillman Imp engine, the prototype of which was far from complete, may also have been partly responsible for the company's demise.
