The former German Rally Champion Codriver Wolfgang H. Inhester took a Porsche 911 SC 3.0 from 1983 to transform it as close as possible to a copy of the SCRS that Henri Toivonen drove to victory on the Costa Smeralda Rally in 1984. Mehr >

Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IV - 1997, Gr. A - Peter Jäger/Moritz Wagner


This Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IV was an original Ralliart training car from Ralliart UK that has now been converted piece by piece into a Group A version. The former Ralliart factory mechanic Georg Mahla himself helped with the maintenance and conversion of the Evo - more expertise is not possible. Mehr >

Opel Kadett Gsi - 1990, Gr. A - Andreas Hoppe/Ramona Hoppe
Original

After 1990, this Kadett was sold to Italy, where it was driven for many years by the owner himself and also rented out at over 100 events. Matter had done a great job with the stiffeners and the roll cage, as the doors still lock firmly today. After some research and negotiations, the Kadett returned to Germany at the end of 2023, complete with a valid FIA car pass. Some attention was needed to bring it back to its original condition. The last two events were chosen for the arrangement of the stickers. Mehr >

Lancia Rally 037 E2 - 1984, Gr. B - Stefano Roncadori/Luca Silvi


This is a completely new built Lancia 037 at no expense based on a Lancia Beta Coupe. This copy is given much attention to details and is 100% identical to the original 037 in every detail, from its looks to the mechanics, engine, supercharger, rims, etc. The car was finally finished in 2024.

Ford Escort RS Cosworth - 1995, Gr. A - Christian Jupsin/Jean-Francois Elst
Original

Christian bought this car in 2019 from the previous owner from the south of France where it was also driven by Francoise Delecour on some events. It was in good original condition but needs quite a bit of preparation to get it up and running as it was not driven for years. Mehr >

Fiat Uno Turbo - 1986, Gr. 4 - Matteo Pontarolo/Marco Pontarolo


This is an original Fiat Uno Turbo from the Italian Trofeo Fiat Uno rally series from 1986, which was then upgraded to a Group A car with Abarth mechanics and parts in 1989. It was entered in many different Italian rallies in Lombardy, Piedmont and Aosta and also in the 1000 Miglia Rally. For 2024, this Fiat was completely restored and given the Totip design, which was also often driven in the 1986 World Championship. Mehr >

Lancia Rally 037 - 1983, Gr. B - Walter Münch/Bruno Schraud


Walter Münsch's collection of Röhrl Monte Carlo winning cars was missing just one, namely the Lancia Rally 037 from 1983. As the original was not available, the option was to have a copy built, which began in 2018 and took until the summer of 2024. Then it was finally finished. Mehr >

Opel Ascona A - 1975, Gr. 2 - Alfred Kreuer/Mario Löhr


This Ascona was rebuilt from a well-preserved road car in the Netherlands and Alfred Kreuer took it over from there in 2019. The body, drive train, technology and interior were completely restored and refurbished. In addition, the safety equipment was completed in accordance with the specifications and brought up to the current state of the art. Mehr >

Talbot Sunbeam Lotus - 1981, Gr. 2 - Peter Schlömer/


Peter Schlömer and Martin Kiefer built this Talbot from a road car to a perfect original copy of the works cars from 1981 and made it also reliable, driving it almost as sideways as Henri Toivonen did in his best days. The works rear axle was rebuilt from a Jaguar unit and even the double exhaust system of the works cars was duplicated. Peter is also one of the leading figures of the Eifel Rallye Festival and some important people behind the scenes of the festival will be sitting in his co-driver's seat. Mehr >

Audi Sport Quattro S1 - 1985, Gr. B - Harald Demuth/Christian Fellinger
Original

The double German Rally Champion Harald Demuth (in 1982 and 1984 at the wheel of an Audi Quattro) has been part of the Eifel Rallye Festival every year since its foundation in 2011. For 2024, the long-time works driver for Audi, will drive a Sport Quattro owned by Audi Tradition. During his days as a professional rally driver, Demuth drove a Sport Quattro only once: on the RAC Rally of 1986 where he retired with engine failure. Mehr >
