ABOUT
OUR STORY
Built on Passion. Driven by Performance.
Founded by motorsport enthusiast Andy Entwistle, Raptor Sports Cars is the culmination of a lifelong passion for engineering and speed. With his vision, drive, and determination, Andy, alongside his wife Kirstin, has grown Raptor into a family-run business dedicated to designing and manufacturing lightweight, high-performance sports cars. By incorporating cutting-edge motorsport technology, Raptor delivers a driving experience that’s second to none.
Nestled at the historic RAF East Fortune Airfield - right next to the National Museum of Flight in East Lothian - Raptor is proud to call this iconic location home. It’s a fitting backdrop for a company that blends the heritage of aviation with the innovation of motorsport.
Andy’s journey began in 2002, building race engines for track applications. By 2012, after fitting one of his engines into a kit car, demand quickly grew. The vision of building entire cars powered by his bespoke engines became a reality and in 2015, the first Raptor Sports Car rolled off the production line.
Raptor remains independent and together with a dedicated team of engineers they continue to drive the company forward.
At Raptor, we’re not just about cars - we’re about creating lasting memories, sharing a passion for performance, and building a community of like-minded enthusiasts.
Engineering Excellence
Every Raptor is built around a strong, lightweight chassis, featuring cutting-edge technology and F1-style pushrod suspension. With a background in building race car engines since 2002, Andy and the team bring a deep understanding of performance to every vehicle they produce.
Made in Scotland, Driven Everywhere
In 2015, the first Raptor sports car rolled off the production line—marking the return of car manufacturing to Scotland. It was a proud milestone, and one that continues to drive our innovation today.
Your Raptor, Your Way
While the factory-built Raptors are the heart of the business, Raptor also offer a Self-Build Modular Kit, giving enthusiasts the chance to get hands-on. This option has become incredibly popular with those who love the process as much as the product.
