History
The Mondiale company in Northern Ireland was founded in 1984 by ex-Crossle designer Leslie Drysdale
and others. The initial offering, the M84S was immediately successful and was very effectively developed
over sucessive seasons. The small firm was given a measure of stability in 1986 by a large order
placed by the Skip Barber School for specially deisgned school cars which are still in use today.
The firm also built the Barber-SAAB pro cars. The history of this particular car follows:
