Ginetta G40
The Ginetta G40 is a specialist sports car, which has been built by Ginetta Cars since 2010. It is available in two versions; a road-going version, named the G40R, and the race version, the G40, which is available in two specifications; one of which is the G40 Challenge, the other is the G40 Junior, which were designed for the Ginetta GT5 Challenge and the Ginetta Junior Championship respectively. The G40 replaced the Ginetta G20 race car, and also replaced the road version of the Ginetta G50.

In addition to the Ginetta Junior Championship, the G40 has been entered in the Britcar series.

At the 2011 edition of the race, the top G40 finished 26th overall, and fourth in class; this time entered by Rollcentre Racing, and driven by Richard Skyes, Jake Rattenbury, Brian Saunders and Mark Davies.

Ginetta also built a less powerful variant of the G40, named the G40 Junior. This utilizes a restricted version of the 1.8 litre Zetec engine, to comply with MSA regulations, and was used in the Ginetta Junior Championship (replacing the G20), a series for 14- to 17-year-olds that is part of the British Touring Car Championship's support package.
