Turner Sports Cars was a British automotive manufacturer that was founded in 1951. This small company specialized in the creation of compact sports cars that were available in completed or kit form. The company's founder, Jack Turner was active in a wide range of racing-related endeavors, including building engines, preparing race cars, as well as building one-off cars. Due to this racing history, many of the models produced by Turner, such as the 950 Sports and the Sports Mk I were commonly used as race cars. After having a heart attack in 1966, Jack Turner shut the company down.
