Baby Bertha
Arguably the world’s most famous and successful Vauxhall competition car, Baby Bertha was driven to success by the legendary Gerry Marshall between 1975 and 1977. The 5.0-litre 500bhp supercar won 43 races in total and took the Super Saloon Championship two years running. The one-off car is based on a Firenza, but uses a V8 engine to reach speeds in excess of 150mph. The 1974 Baby Bertha is now owned by Joe Ward, who still campaigns the car.
