Donkervoort Super Eight '85

The Donkervoort Super Eight is a true driver’s car, hand-built in the Netherlands according to the lightweight philosophy reminiscent of the Lotus Seven. This 1985 example remains in an older but well-preserved original condition and delivers the raw, analogue driving experience the brand is famous for. A genuine enthusiast’s car with character and history.
