Veritas Reborn

Immediately after WW II a small German firm, named Veritas, sprung up from the ashes of the BMW program. BMW's fate was cloudy immediately after the war and several of it's technical folks found other work, including building sports racing and formula cars under the Veritas banner.

There's a new Veritas, and true to its history, it utilizes a BMW powertrain. In this case the insanely powerful S85 V-10 lifted from BMW's M5. Ah heck, pictures are truly worth more than words in this case, here's the vid . . .



It's not retro - but it manages to pay homage to the marques styling cues. Well done, and I suspect scary quick!

Odd that in times of financial concern, somehow the bespoke builders manage to survive.
