It almost reads like a fairy tale, the story of Dutchman Joop Donkervoort who started his own car company in 1978 and managed to develop the Donkervoort brand into an iconic, world-famous Dutch car brand. From the beginning, Donkervoort focused on lightning-fast two-seater sports cars. From 1993, they were built in the famous D8 version, which from 1999 were equipped with 1.8 liter turbo engines from Audi. These four-cylinder twenty-valve engines had 150 hp as standard, but Donkervoort also supplied tuned versions with 180 hp. The Donkervoort at Classic Park is such a tuned D8 with 180 hp. The sprint to 100 km/h takes just 5.0 seconds and the car can go on to 210 km/h.
The Donkervoort D8 is a car that is primarily made for driving enthusiasts. The shifting, the steering, everything is focused on driving pleasure, which is why a smile on the face is included as standard. The sporty leather/alcantara interior and the Willans belts certainly contribute to this. This D8 has driven less than 2000 kilometers a year on average and has a nice low mileage with 35,124 km on the counter. The car was delivered new in France in 2001 and is currently registered in the Netherlands.
