So the LMP2 Lola HU01 - HU09 are all B05/4X. B07/4X or B06/4X is just marketing.
I do not think that to be correct! Unless I have misunderstood the e-mail I have from Lola on the subject.

Thank you for your enquiry to Lola Cars.

The model designation is made up as follows; The 'B' is to indicate the car is built by Lola during the ownership of Martin Birrane, the company's Executive Chairman.

The founder and original owner of the Company was Eric Broadley who sold his interest to Mr. Birrane during 1997. During Broadley's era cars were prefixed 'T' simply referring to 'type'

The next pair of numbers indicate the year of construction. The final pair are the model number of the car signifying the class of racing built for.
A n example is;
B2K.40. A car built during year 2000 for Le Mans Prototype class 2 racing. B06.30 is a 2006 car for the Formula Three Championship. B07.90 is this years Sports 2000 car.

Kind regards, Glyn Jones.
