RADFORD TYPE 62-2 GOLD LEAF IS A REMARKABLE VEHICLE
Wondering about the Radford Type 62-2 price? This limited-run British coachbuilt supercar, revived by former Formula 1 World Champion Jenson Button, is a modern reinterpretation of the classic Lotus 62 prototype racecar, with the Gold Leaf edition built around a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 producing up to 600 horsepower. Only 62 examples will ever be made, which places it firmly in collector-grade pricing territory.
What is the Radford Type 62-2?
Radford, a storied British coachbuilder, has returned to business with the support of Jenson Button. Its first car, the Type 62-2, is a modern version of the Lotus 62 prototype racecar. Lotus has approved the design, which uses a strong aluminum chassis derived from the Evora and adds new carbon fiber bodywork inspired by the original 62. The Gold Leaf edition wears the same heritage livery that made the original car famous on track, as detailed by Wikipedia.
How much does the Radford Type 62-2 cost?
Pricing is set at supercar level and varies by trim and specification. Because each car is hand-built and production is capped at just 62 units, the radford type 62-2 for sale proposition is closer to a collectible commission than a showroom purchase. The Gold Leaf edition packs a powerful 3.5-liter supercharged Toyota V6 engine producing up to 600 horsepower, paired with a sub-1000kg dry weight for a ferocious power-to-weight ratio. Full trim breakdowns are covered by Top Gear.

Why is the Radford Type 62-2 so special?
Jenson Button is personally involved in fine-tuning the car's performance on the track, lending real Formula 1 expertise to its dynamics. With only 62 track-focused examples planned, the Type 62-2 combines genuine racing heritage, modern carbon fiber engineering and one of the most evocative liveries in motorsport. It is exactly the kind of low-volume, high-pedigree machine that defines the modern coachbuilding revival.
