Two-seat, mid-engined Cosworth V12 supercar — Gordon Murray's classically proportioned counterpart to the T.50, offered as Coupe or targa-roofed Spider.
Revealed in January 2022, the T.33 is Gordon Murray Automotive's second model — a two-seat, rear-mid-engined V12 supercar built around a bonded aluminium and carbon-composite structure at Dunsfold, Surrey. It uses a bespoke Cosworth GMA.2 3,994cc 65-degree V12 developing roughly 607 bhp / 615 PS at 10,500 rpm and 451 Nm at 9,000 rpm, with an 11,100 rpm redline; more recent factory specifications quote up to 617 PS at 10,250 rpm. Buyers choose between a 6-speed Xtrac manual and a 6-speed Xtrac IGS paddle-shift transmission, with the manual understood to have been the majority choice.
Production is capped at 100 Coupes plus 100 Spiders, each with its own separate allocation. All slots were sold before first deliveries, which were delayed until 2026 while GMA prioritised T.50 production and special editions. Every car is fully federalised for global markets, with left- and right-hand drive offered.
The T.33 is the more usable, more classically proportioned expression of Gordon Murray's late-career supercar programme — a natural counterpoint to the T.50's central-driver, fan-aero purity, and among the last new naturally-aspirated V12 supercars anywhere.
| Variant | Years | Production | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| T.33 Coupe | 2026–2027 | 100 | Fixed-roof two-seat coupe. Choice of 6-speed manual or 6-speed IGS paddle-shift. All 100 allocations sold before first delivery, with the manual understood to have been the majority choice. |
| T.33 Spider | 2027– | 100 | Targa architecture with two removable roof panels stowing in the front luggage compartment; separate 100-unit run distinct from the Coupe. Launch pricing ~$2.3–2.4m. All allocations reported sold. |
| T.33 Niki Lauda (reported) | TBA | — | A harder, track-focused derivative named for the three-time world champion has been reported as following the T.50s Niki Lauda; no production details or timing are confirmed. |
Start with identity, paperwork and originality. For the Gordon Murray Automotive T.33, the strongest cars have continuous ownership history, matching numbers where applicable, original books and tools, factory build documentation and evidence of work by manufacturer-approved specialists. Manual gearbox, restrained original specification, delivery mileage, complete GMA delivery file and unbroken factory service.
Cosworth GMA.2 V12 spins to 11,100 rpm; service intervals are short and factory-only, with the powertrain, IGS gearbox and structural composites not serviceable outside GMA's own network. A proper pre-purchase inspection includes cold-start behaviour, ECU diagnostics and fault-code history (where applicable), leak-down or compression testing, underbody photography, suspension and chassis inspection, brake condition and a long enough road test to expose heat-related faults. Deferred maintenance on a car of this class is almost always more expensive than buying a better-sorted example.
Use a paint-depth gauge, lift access and a specialist familiar with the model's factory panel gaps and finish standards. Collector value is dramatically affected by structural repairs, refinished panels, poor paintwork and missing factory trim or option content. Documented cosmetic refresh is acceptable; concealed accident or fire damage must be priced severely.
Manual-gearbox cars in restrained factory specifications with continuous GMA service; Spider allocations distinct from the Coupe run. Specification, colour, options and limited-build variants move values significantly. Buy the best-documented example in the most desirable specification you can justify, rather than a tired example of a rarer derivative that will need years of corrective work.
Regional ranges authored independently — each reflects its local market, not an FX conversion
Budget annually even if the car is used sparingly. Fluids age, tyres and date-coded rubber components must be replaced regardless of mileage, and stored cars need exercise. A documented maintenance rhythm protects both reliability and resale value.
GMA-only support; engine, gearbox and structural composite work are all factory-network. Before purchase, confirm parts availability for model-specific bodywork, electronics, gearbox and engine components. A discounted car waiting on unobtainable parts or a factory service slot is rarely a saving in collector ownership.

No public auction results exist because customer deliveries have only just begun: the T.33 barely exists in owners' hands yet, and the Coupe and Spider allocations sold out before the first cars left Dunsfold. When secondary trades do surface, values will be set by manual-vs-IGS mix, delivery-file completeness and the wider trajectory of the low-volume naturally-aspirated V12 segment, of which the T.33 is one of very few remaining new entrants.
| Date | Auction | Car | Mileage | Result |

No T.33 has been offered at public auction because customer deliveries only began in 2026. This section will be updated once a verifiable public result appears.
Capped 100 + 100 allocation, Gordon Murray authorship, naturally-aspirated Cosworth V12 and a bias toward the manual gearbox all argue for a defensible long-term position. Weaker fan-aero narrative than the T.50 caps the ceiling, but scarcity and engineering credibility remain durable.
