Description

A 1998 Donkervoort D8 2.0 Cosworth Cup, finished in Ice Lavender Metallic. This car is a rare Cup edition that remains completely original and has been in the possession of its second owner since 2001, complete with full documentation!

Exterior This Donkervoort is finished in Ice Lavender Metallic and rides on original 15-inch Revolution alloy wheels. It represents a rare and fully original Cup specification, factory-equipped with several specific Cup components. These include a stiffer roll bar, an additional driver-side brace, and master kill switches operable from both inside and outside the car.

Interior The cabin is trimmed in red leather and features specific Cup equipment. The dashboard houses the brake bias adjustment dial, while a lap timer is mounted underneath. Furthermore, the driver's seat is fitted with a 6-point Willans harness, accompanied by internal and external master kill switches—all key elements of the factory Cup package.

Mechanics Power comes from the 2.0-liter Cosworth engine, producing approximately 230 hp. Drive is delivered to the rear wheels via a T-9 5-speed manual transmission. The vehicle is built to dedicated Cup technical specs, featuring adjustable brake bias, Tarox brakes, and adjustable WP suspension, along with the reinforced roll bar and driver-side brace.

History Delivered new in Germany in 1998, this Donkervoort was imported to the Netherlands by Albers Sportscars in 1999. It is a rare D8 2.0 Cosworth Cup that has retained complete originality from new, complete with factory Cup options: brake bias, kill switches, lap timer, driver-side brace, stiffer roll bar, adjustable WP suspension, and Tarox brakes. Cherished by its second owner since 2001, it comes with a complete, fully documented history.
