Based on the Cabrio the Hunter was a complete, factory built car.

In October 1997 the company was bought by Terry and Mark Matthews and they, as the new owners of the remaining Marlin marque, introduced the turnkey Hunter. Using the Cabrio as its base, the Hunter was a factory built car featuring a high quality of assembly but allowed customers to request features to make their chosen car unique.

In 2002, and to celebrate twenty years of the Marlin name, the factory embarked on its most audacious project yet The V8 powered Makaira was a benchmark car for Marlin, embodying everything the company had learnt in developing the turnkey Hunter, in order to produce a highly exclusive, all aluminium bodied traditional roadster. With a price tag of over £40,000, this beautiful car took Marlin into yet more unchartered waters and continued the company’s heritage of pushing the boundaries – unfortunately, only one was ever built.
