Crosslé 9S Sports

First registration 06.1966

Phenomenal power-to-weight ratio

Swiss road registration

The Crosslé 9S is neither an actual racing car nor a production sports car, but both in one.
The one offered here was completely rebuilt by the Swiss Crosslé specialist and importer, with a 2-liter Ford engine with over 220 hp, a Hewland MK9 5-speed racing gearbox and a dry weight of approx. 530 kg, just imagine the power-to-weight ratio. The car was used very successfully in the British Sportscar Cup, the Swiss Championship and the Crosslé Cup. The engine was recently completely overhauled and the bodywork restored.
This phenomenal Crosslé 9S with Swiss road registration has been perfectly cared for, always looked after and maintained by the Swiss Crosslé specialist and is in top condition fresh from the MOT, ready for new missions.

The brand, which bears a crusader’s sword in its emblem, was founded by John and Rosemary Crosslé in Ireland in 1957. Initially, the focus was on the production of formula cars such as Formula Junior, Formula Ford, Formula 2 and even Formula 5000. The Formula Ford cars in particular were very popular with racing schools in Great Britain and Ireland due to their quality. Many well-known drivers, including later Grand Prix drivers such as Nigel Mansell, Eddie Irvine, Johnny Dumfries and John Watson, gained their first racing experience at the wheel of a Crosslé.
Later, the company also began building small open-top sports cars. One of these models was the Crosslé 9S, which caused a sensation in various racing series in the 1960s. This model is still produced for motorsport today and can be driven on the road in a tamer version with lights, indicators and other “amenities” thanks to the appropriate equipment and individual approval.
