'LDS' is the name given to various single seater racing specials built for the South African F1 Championship. The "specials" were built by Louis Douglas Serrurier, hence the name. The Mark 1 and Mark 2 models were based on Cooper designs, whilst the Mark 3 was based on the Brabham BT11. Mark 1 and Mark 2 models (1962-1965) used Alfa Romeo 1.5 L straight-4 engines.
A total of 8 LDS cars participated in 5 World Championship Grands Prix. They did not score any World Championship points, but they did secure 1 pole position.
