Summary[edit]

Description

Eind 1998 is de Nederlandse topontwerper Dimitri Göbel begonnen met het ontwerpen van de Burton, die toen de codenaam "Hunter" droeg. Bij het ontwerp heeft hij zich laten inspireren door legendarische sportauto's als Bugatti, Jaguar, Talbot Lago, Delahaye en Alfa Romeo. Na anderhalf jaar was de basis klaar en op 9 februari 2000 kwam de eerste body uit de mallen. In mei 2000 werd de Burton geïntroduceerd op de Nederlandse markt. Een open, nostalgische sportauto gebouwd op het onderstel van een 2CV.

This sportscar has been built on the chassis of a Citroën AYB-AM Dyane 6 Commercial from 1972.

With their passion for car design and technology the brothers Dimitri and Iwan Göbel established their company in 1993. Their love for the Citroën 2CV began to grow in their student years. Soon a 2CV was changed into a pick-up or a Lomax. At the end of 1998 the begin of designing a new sportscar was made. For this, the chassis of the 2CV was used once again. May 2000 saw the official introduction of the Burton! Today, Burton Car Company is the largest sportscar manufacturer in the Netherlands.
