Georg Berlandy built this Ascona in 2007 based on Klaus Miersch's 1973 Rally Monte-Carlo Ascona. Georg then used it successfully for 8 years in many rallies, winning the Rallye Köln-Ahrweiler five times alone. In 2016, Uwe Sturm was very lucky to be able to take over his dream car from Georg and, as a newcomer, continue to present it to the spectators at various rallies. Mehr >

When Michael “Speedy” Splettstösser bought this Alpine A110 back in 1994, it was only partly restored and not assembled. Splettströsser finished the job and turned this A110 into a copy of the works cars from 1971. The only differences is the rear axle where he did not use the old swing axle and a fragile gearbox but a system used in the later A110 and A310 models. Mehr >

This Lancer Evo V has always been in Switzerland, where it changed hands in 2016 until Roman Soltermann took it over in 2019. It was in good condition because the previous owners hardly drove it at all, and Roman converted it into a copy of Tommi Mäkinen's 1998 works car. Mehr >

The Schölderle couple have a great fondness for Opel rally cars and thought about what would be missing from the whole Opel range at slowly sideways. That's when they came up with the idea of the Opel GT, it can be as simple as that. Mehr >

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 >

This Volvo came to the Netherlands from Finland in 2022 and was already a competition car. John de Heijde and his company JDH Classic Motorsport then overhauled and repainted this Volvo into a copy of the car that Susanne Kottulinsky drove from 1984 to 1986. Theo Ruigh lives half in the Netherlands and half in the USA, where he has a large collection of Porsche racing cars. Mehr >
