This Talbot was advertised in the German paper Markt as a standard Sunbeam Lotus in black with silver stripes, it had no clue what a rally car was.

Already back in 2002 it could drive its first events. Mehr >

Around 2006 Dieter Mohr bought this A 310 from a friend and completed the change from a road car to a copy of the Fréquelin car from 1977. This meant fine-tuning of the V6 engine, a roll cage, proper seats, a limited slip differential, hydraulic handbreak and wider wheel arches. Mehr >

This Ferrari 308 GTB was built by Jan Nijhof, a former successful Dutch rally driver. Jan is known for excellence in building rally cars. After years of track racing, Claudio Missaglia wanted to try rallying as well and bought the 308 GTB of Jan as it was so irresistibly well built. In 2024 Claudio started in rallying in the Dutch Historic Championships. To have some mercy with the Ferrari, he used an Opel Manta GTE that was also built by Jan. Mehr >

This Renault was acquired in the late 90s as a normal road car and then converted into a group A rally car. After taking part in some competitions in his home country, Robin Meeuwsen had to give up this hobby for health reasons and initially devoted himself to a completely different hobby, namely sled dog racing. Then he visited the Eifel Rallye Festival several times and decided to make his 21 Turbo a copy of the works car that Philippe Bugalski drove in Corsica in 1988. Mehr >
