New Shelby Super Snake Mustang brings 830 horsepower to UK motorists
London-based high-performance vehicle specialist, Clive Sutton, has opened order books for the 830 horsepower 2024 Shelby Super Snake Mustang. The limited-edition Shelby American enhancement to the new S650 Mustang is available from the Sutton team in left- and right-hand drive, in coupe and convertible form, featuring a supercharged 830hp V8 engine.
The new model is available in fastback or convertible form, with either a manual or automatic transmission. As the highest performing Shelby Super Snake in history, the 5.0-litre V8-powered Mustang features a host of enhancements, from uprated suspension, and better cooling, to bigger brakes, and a high-flow exhaust. The Shelby model also features lightweight improvements, including an aluminium bonnet, magnesium wheels, and a carbon fibre rear wing – which also contributes to the car’s more agile handling.
Joe Conway, CEO of Shelby American: “We designed the Shelby Super Snake to be the pinnacle of our performance cars based on Ford’s world-class Mustang sports car. It follows Carroll Shelby’s vision that each generation of car improves the breed – this is our best Shelby Super Snake yet.”
Priced from £220,000 on-the-road and inclusive of all modifications, taxes, and import duties, buyers interested in the powerful new Mustang can reserve one of the 250 exclusively limited build slots now through specialist retailer Clive Sutton, for delivery in early 2025. Every model is entered in the official Shelby Register and comes with a comprehensive 3-year / 30,000-mile warranty.
Clive Sutton, Founder and CEO: “We have a long history of bringing UK enthusiasts the most powerful and desirable Mustangs. I’m confident that the Shelby Super Snake Mustang will excite many of our UK customers. The fact we handle all import technicalities and can offer this model in right-hand drive with a three-year warranty, means UK buyers essentially get a full vehicle manufacturer-style turnkey experience.”
The Shelby Super Snake was inspired by the 1966 race bred Mark IV Ford GT, which won Le Mans that year. The first Super Snake was a one-off experimental model built for high-speed track testing. Over the years, the iconic model line has evolved, while retaining its ‘competition-edged’ personality.
Clive Sutton has imported Shelby vehicles to the UK for more than 16 years and is the UK’s only official Shelby American distributor. Alongside the new Shelby Super Snake Mustang, the Sutton team offers Shelby’s range-topping Super Snake F-150 trucks, and the new Shelby Cobra. The Super Snake F-150 brings super-sized power and presence with 775bhp of all-American performance. Meanwhile, the new CSX10000 Shelby Cobra faithfully reinvents the iconic 1960s sports car with a new 5.0-litre V8 engine and a host of modern enhancements.
