Built to export specification for the European market, complete with a 320km/h speedometerJust 9,000km from newResident of a private collection, where it has been since 2009Full weather equipment and highly original throughoutAmerican muscle cars: 'Mad, bad and dangerous to know'The Dodge Viper was launched in January 1992. A pure American muscle car, it was conceived by Bob Lutz, Tom Gale, Francois Castaing and Carroll Shelby. Built around a tubular steel backbone frame equipped with all round double-wishbone independent suspension, vented disc brakes and power-assisted rack and pinion steering, it did without ABS or a traction control system. Extensively reworked by Lamborghini (another Chrysler subsidiary at the time), its 8 litre V10 former truck engine gained a new aluminium block and cylinder heads. Quoted as developing some 400bhp and 465lbft of torque, it was mated to a six-speed Borg Warner T-56 manual gearbox. Clad in lightweight resin transfer moulding glassfibre body panels, the targa-roofed RT/10 claimed a 0-60mph time of 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 165mph. Remaining in production until 2017, the Viper has long since attracted a cult following (though, later versions came with a far fuller complement of driver-aid electronics).It may have been the embodiment of Americana, but a very small number of Dodge Vipers were supplied new to Europe, and this aggressive RT/10 was among them.It was originally shipped to Germany, with a German identity card stating that it was granted approval on 31st January, 1995. The service book carries the stamp of Gewerkstatt GmbH, a Chrysler-Jeep dealer in Bochum, western Germany, which presumably sold the Viper new, though the first entry in the service book is dated 6th July, 1995, and stamped by Autozentrum 2000 GmbH in Cologne.
