Oliver Hulme - Le Mans Coupes - Superformance GT40s, Cobras and The Spartan

Car Chat

Le Mans Coupes is the UK importer of a bunch of cool cars. From Superformance GT40s and Cobras to the Hyper Racer X1 and Spartan. I have a sit down with the boss Oliver Hulme after a drive in a GT40 to discuss these cars and the others they have for sale.
