Company

Gillet is a Belgian luxury sports car manufacturer that was established in 1992 by Tony Gillet, a former racing driver. The company is known for producing the Vertigo sports coupé, a bespoke and hand-built ultra-lightweight (990 kg) supercar that delivers outstanding performance and driving experience.

The company's slogan "Supercar and work of art Pure Pleasure!" reflects its commitment to delivering not only a high-performance vehicle but also a piece of art that is a joy to own and drive. The Vertigo is renowned for its sleek and modern design, which incorporates advanced aerodynamics and state-of-the-art engineering.

The first Vertigo model was powered by a Ford Cosworth 2.0-litre 4-in-line engine, while later models featured more powerful engines, such as the 3.0-litre Alfa Romeo V6 engine and the 4.2-litre Ferrari/Maserati V8 in the Vertigo .5.

All Gillet cars are produced in small quantities and are handmade to ensure that each car is unique and tailored to the customer's preferences. As such, the Vertigo is a rare and exclusive car that is highly sought after by car enthusiasts and collectors.
