Chassis:
This is the one-off N175, which was first raced by Gijs van Lennep at the French Grand Prix, where he finished 15th. Its next outing was with compatriot Roelof Wunderink, who failed to qualify for the British Grand Prix. It was then raced to sixth in the German Grand Prix by Van Lennep, scoring Ensign's first ever point. Chris Amon also raced the car that year with a ninth as the best result. After the legal dispute with HB Bewaking was sorted, the N175, renamed a Boro, was campaigned in select 1976 Grands Prix by Larry Perkins. Its final outings came in 1978 when it was raced by a series of drivers in the Aurora AFX Championship. The unique N175 was later restored to its 1976 livery and configuration. In its most recent ownership, it was re-painted in the HB Bewaking colours but, presumably long lost, the high airbox used in 1975 was not fitted.
