Donkervoort D8 180R 2001
The D8 180R, an uncommon find, is a spectacle of unmatched condition. Born out of a desire to clinch the Donkervoort Cup in the early 2000s, this model was designed with a singular vision: victory.
This specific gem, however, tells a slightly different tale. It remained a road marauder, never having partaken in the competitive rush. With an imposing 245 BHP, this 180R remains one of the most exhilarating D8s to command. Its substantial turbo gives a nostalgic nod to classic race cars, promising to paint a grin on your face with every journey.
The exterior, drenched in metallic black, paired with the black Alcantara interior, perfectly encapsulates the menacing spirit of this road titan.
The car is in excellent condition and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
interior
The 180R typically features a race driver seat, and on occasion, it's even sans the passenger seat.
However, the recent steward of this car sought a unique interior vision: completely refitted with carbon seats swathed in Alcantara, a newly installed tunnel cover, and a specialized steering wheel.
The interior mirrors the current Donkervoort interior standards, presenting itself in impeccable, fresh condition.
