Constructed from: 2001, the cars have Ford Zetec engines of 1.80l, producing 140 bhp.

Initially ran alongside G27's in the Ginetta Championship - eventually G27's were displaced.

The G20 was conceived following Martin Phaff's purchase of Ginetta. The then financial crisis resulted in various painful decisions for the company, and the only model selling was the G27. Phaff did a deal with the BARC to race a limited production run of G27 race cars in a race series (later sponsored by Pentel), thus ensuring that Ginetta had some customers, and that - in general - quality control would be done by the customer (race preparation team). The G27 was time consuming to produce, the G20 much less so, with no doors or boot to 'fit' accurately. Phaff's excellent relationship with BARC meant that the G20's had somewhere to race too.

(Not to be confused with earlier number G20 (circa 1969) design for V6 mid engine road car but never made

Cost - £12999 (complete car)

Ginetta G20 Coupé

The 'coupé' version of the G20 was a privately developed project. Indeed, Martin Phaff ran as navigator when it took part in a rally, before its use in the Junior Series was considered. When the G20 Junior was replaced by the G40 Junior model, all of the G20 Junior cars were sold, en bloc, to race in the Irish Ginetta Junior Championship, so it's unlikely that any will be seen in the UK for a while.

 Ginetta G20 Junior

Constructed from: 2003, the cars have Ford Zetec SE engines of 1.40l, producing 88 bhp.

Compete in the Ginetta Junior Championship. Probably the most successful of the Ginetta race series, its popularity greatly assisted as it ran as a major support series in the healine British Touring Car (BTCC) package for a number of consecutive seasons, until 2022.

Numerous top level drivers graduated from the Ginetta Junior Series obver the years and the entry lists read like a "Who's who" of the best of young racing talent.

Ginetta G20 GT Cup

Constructed from: 2005, the car had a Jaguar aj v6 engine.

This was one-off privateer (Richmaond Racing) 'exercise' which ran for a couple of years in the British GT Championship (Cup class)

When the British GT Championship began to bloom, the Cup class was terminated, and the G20 GTC project ended simultaneously. At least one road car was produced, probably by a private individual.
