Ex-Schumacher cars take pride of place

A small mews street in London is currently the home of four ex-Schumacher F1 cars. The Jordan, two Benettons and an F2002 Ferrari are part of the stock of a new company, Cars International, which specialises in grand prix and sporting machinery. Former F1 driver Martin Brundle and fellow TV commentator Tony Jardine were guests of honour at the January opening of the showrooms. The company’s founders are Jonathan Kaiser and Paul Osborn, who often drives the F1 cars at events such as the Goodwood Festival. 

As well as sales, the firm offers a race-preparation and restoration service based near Swindon, which can handle everything from 1960s GTs to late-model F1 cars. Visit www.carsinternational.com for details.
