(from
Arash Motor Company) 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.

Honeycomb core
– Front and Rear Sub frames Steel
– Roll Cage Steel
– Formula 1 composite engineers were enlisted to
produce the chassis out of carbon fibre with a
high strength aluminium honeycomb core.
– Autoclave process...
– 2x2 twill and triaxial weave used to give a
very high stiffness and strength to weight
ratio.
– The end result is an accurate, incredibly
light and rigid structure manufactured to the
highest standards.
– Strong steel tubed front and rear subframes
and a full roll cage complete the chassis
structure
– Completely flat underfloor ensures smooth
airflow under the car giving the AF-10 high
aerodymanic performance. Computational Fluid
Dynamic Tested
– Thoughout its development the AF-10 has been
subjected to various virtual aerodynamic
simulations using complex state-of-the-art CFD
software

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.
