Arash Motor Company was born out of a passion for cars, the allure of beauty and the thrill of driving the seemingly endless acceleration of a thoroughbred engine.
The engine, or better still, the soul of the AF10 is designed to withstand the punishment of motor racing and we're sure it will excite even the most accomplished of drivers.
The superlative handling of a chassis designed by leaders in their field combined with extraordinarily forceful braking performance will make you question whether the tyres will still be intact when you climb out. The AF10 seduces and excites on every level with it's distinctive silhouette and exceptional performance.
Body
100% carbon construction using aluminum honeycomb and nomex panels for sandwich strength.
Rear window and driver to engine compartment window made of non shatter and scratch resistant plastic. Front windows and side windows are constructed of laminated glass.
All body parts have been constructed using the carbon autoclave process of eliminating excess resins via pressure and heat to make parts lighter and stiffer than ever constructed.

History
Arash Motor Company was established in March 2006 and has been working on the AF10 ever since.
The styling drawings were made in March 2005 by Arash Farboud Designs and have since been converted into computer models and aerodynamic cfd mesh models.
The company is located in Sawston on the outskirts of Cambridge. Most testing will be conducted at Millbrooke proving grounds 20 miles away from the company. The facility in Sawston Cambridge is equipped with a styling studio, painting booth, carbon lamination room, parts dispatch area, carbon curing autoclave oven and polished epoxy floored car assembly stations. A board room and administration offices are also located at the site.
Arash Motor Company have designed a traditionally shaped badge with an eagle emblem. The background colour is solid black and the foreground eagle is in gold. The Arash Motor Company' emblem is in flame orange.
