Irmscher, the Germany-based tuning firm has just unveiled their latest creation to fight the war against overweight ridiculously powered big budget supercars with their lightweight Irmscher 7 kit car that can be purchased for less than 20,000 Euros.
Following in the footsteps of Callin Chapman’s original Lotus 7 and the later Caterham iteration. The Irmscher 7 is set to compete head to head with other affordable sportscars like the Ariel Atom that are capable of supercar like performance.
You can have your 7 in four different flavors. The base model is powered by a 2.2 Liter naturally aspirated Opel power plant producing 150 HP. There is also a 2.0 Liter turbocharged model with 210 HP and the next up the line makes 265 HP. However the top of the line Irmscher 7 weighs only 725 kg and makes 280 HP giving it an excellent power to weight ratio which allows it perform like a vehicle 100 times more expensive.
The Irmscher 7 is a versatile machine; it comes complete with a fully adjustable suspension for the track and creature comforts like air-conditioning and a rag top for rainy days. So for those looking for speed on a budget or those just wanting to pretend to be Jim Clark, the Irmscher 7 is worth taking a look at.
Automobile tuners Irmscher are most commonly known for tuning Opels and other GM Europe models. With their RC line the tuning company has turned their attention to tuning another Euro-only brand: Peugeot, in particular the largest of the French built vehicles the 4007. The vehicle has been upgraded with a lower front spoiler, metal skid plate under the radiator and a roof spoiler for added visual power. Irmscher also fitted a set of their signature 20 inch Evo-Star design wheels that make this Peugeot stand tall above the rest.
The Chevrolet Captiva is pretty close to the Saturn VUE in the U.S. Which means if you want your Saturn cuddly to badass, Irmscher may have your first step with some serious upgrades.

All these parts are offered at a price of £600, a good price due to the fact that bought invidually they make a total of £2,950. The parts are also available in four metallic colours: Pearl Black, Arctic Silver, Pilbara Grey and Istria Blue.
No, it’s not a mistake! The well-known German tuner Irmscher specialized in customizing Opel vehicles has recently broadened its horizons. The tuning company made a partnership with Peugeot in order to apply its tuning experience also on the French manufacturer’s vehicles. The first vehicle which benefited from these new horizons was the Peugeot 4007 SUV, first shown at 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show.
Then in order to support Peugeot’s 2008 Le Mans entry with the 908 HDI FAP the new partnership produced the RC Line for the entire Peugeot model range. Now the German tuning company is showing a special kit for the Peugeot 407SW which includes: special chrome grill, front spoiler extension, side skirts, roof spoiler and 18” alloy wheels.
