ClassOpen fiberglass dune buggy
First proprietary BRM-badged car after four years assembling Bugre and Glaspac products. Its shortened customer-supplied Volkswagen platform and Manx-like fiberglass shell were distinguished by a double roll bar and larger bumpers. BRM supplied completed cars or performed kit assembly itself. Basic, standard, complete and luxury finishes appeared by 1976; richer versions added rear rack, under-bonnet spare and fiberglass-covered targa-style hoop.
