The classic shape of the Marcos was updated with the launch of the Marcos Mantara in 1992 and small volume Type Approval obtained, as the car was 'standardised' through production and conformed to various safety and emission regulations.
The increasingly difficult and now outdated Triumph front suspension was replaced by an up to date Ford front knuckle assembly.
The Marcos system incorporated a McPherson strut damper, coil spring and anti-rollbar based loosely on the Ford system.
In an attempt to appeal to a more diverse audience and make the driving experience more pleasurable, the Mantara was also the first Marcos with power assisted steering.
The Marcos chassis was altered at the front end to accommodate the new suspension design and with a wider front track, the front end was significantly updated from its predecessor the Mantula.
The main visible styling changes being to the bonnet, rear wheel arches and rear lights in an attempt to give the car a more modern appearance.
