Peugeot 404 - 1966, Gr. 1 - Donald Bramer/Maarten Kerkvliet
Shankland, Bert

This Peugeot 404 was built in its early days already to rally specifications and in Safari Rally livery. It was stored in dry conditions for a long time, so it was not necessary to make a rebuilt. Its engine is as used in the 1967 Safari rally with the original 4-speed gear box and it still today has drum brakes, just as used on the early safaris! Originally Donald Bramer wanted to prepare an Alfa 1600 for rallying but started to drive this 404 until the Alfa was ready. Mehr >

Ford RS200 Evo - 1988, Gr. B - Stig Blomqvist/Lothar Bökamp


This Ford RS200 belongs to Ross Ahlgren, who is also behind the RSCC Distomo project, which is a modern interpretation of the 1986 classic based on the RS200 design. Ross is lending this RS200 to 1984 World Champion Stig Blomqvist for the Eifel Rallye Festival. This RS200 has a more powerful engine than the standard 1986 models, that is why ists called the Evo.

Ford Focus WRC - 2002, Gr. WRC - Xavier Baugnet/Johan Jalet
Kulig

In 2004 the Czech team JM Engineering bought this Ford Focus WRC 01 chassis V474 ONO and later it continued its very international career in Italy, Switzerland, Hungary, Estonia and Lithuania in the hands of various drivers Pier Lorenzo Zanchi, Norbert Herczig, Massimo Beltrami, Mauro Spagolla and notably Saulius Girdauskas. In 2008, the car went to Spain into the hands of César Reiriz and Javier Arias, who took it to three victories in four events in 2010 and 2011. Mehr >

Lancia Delta S4 - 1985, Gr. B - Rolf Wyss/Oswald Backes
Toivonen

Rolf Wyss found this Lancia Delta S4 in Italy as a rolling chassis without engine and gearbox. The chassis number 151 did not indicate that it had pursued a motorsport career since usually numbers smaller than 200 were used for the road-going S4s with numbers over 200 reserved for the Group B competition cars. However, the chassis was nevertheless a pure Group B frame. Mehr >

Audi 200 Quattro - 1987, Gr. A - Gerd Weiler/Klaus Weiler
Röhrl

The idea of building their own car for slowly sideways events arose as early as 2019, but it wasn't until February 2022 that a Audi 200 Quattro prepared for circuit racing finally arrived on the doorstep, and over the next few months it was converted into a copy of the Quattro as it rallied in the 1987 Rally Monte Carlo. The Weiler brothers had previously rallied together and revived their hobby, with Klaus Weiler bringing the necessary knowledge as a car mechanic anyway. Mehr >

Audi 200 Quattro - 1988, Gr. A - Michael Weber/Anica Heerklotz
Schwarz, Armin

After Armin Schwarz's original 200 was completely destroyed by flooding, Michael Weber decided to rebuild one. He had gained enough experience with this type through his David Llewellin 200 Quattro in the Gemini livery, and it's not a bad idea to have a spare car in the garage. Mehr >

Opel Manta 400 - 1983, Gr. B - Daniel Waldorf/Florian Kortüm
Toivonen

This Manta was first registered in 1982. Between 1990 and 1999, Norbert Bezold from Gudensberg near Kassel took part in several rallies with it. Between 2008 and 2010, Roger Lötzner had the Manta rebuilt at Autohaus Wolf in Rockenhausen. The Manta then took part in Slowly Sideways events in the white and yellow Finley livery of Carlos Sainz from the Spanish championship. In May 2015, Daniel Waldorf bought the car and over the next three years brought it as close as possible to its original condition from 1983. Mehr >

Renault 5 Turbo - 1984, Gr. B - Markus Trapp/Sebastian Trapp
Ragnotti

This Renault came as a Turbo2 in 2003 from France to Germany and was modified to Tour de Corse spec which meant different front suspension and coil spring and damper units instead of the torsion bar suspension. Markus Trapp did even build his own suspension parts to change the road car to a proper competition version as used in 1984 by Renault Sport. Mehr >

Lancia Delta Superdelta - 1993, Gr. A - Andre Thiel/Marvin Thiel
Sainz, Carlos

This Lancia Integrale came to the Thiel family in 2013 as a road car and was then converted into a rally car by Lancia specialist Frank Unger. In 2022 it was finally ready and, as a copy of Carlos Sainz's 1993 Repsol Delta, could finally be registered. Mehr >

Fiat 131 Abarth Mirafiori - 1980, Gr. 4 - Thomas Schröder/Daniel Scharf
Röhrl

The company SG Power built this Fiat 131 Abarth with an effort of about 2000 hours to a copy of the Monte Carlo winning car of 1980. It is part of the collection of Walter Münch, who had the goal of rebuilding all of Walter Röhrl's Monte Carlo winning cars. Mehr >
