C200HVW LHD     £94,701 Ex Robert Droogmand

I think this car was originally sold to Mr A Gordon from Hants, UK around January 1987.

12/12/2003 - I found this car whilst surfing the internet looking for a RS200 to buy for myself.

The link I found was http://www.carclassic.com/html/DG85.htm

I have saved the images in case the link above dies in the future.

Their website states...

"Robert Droogmand. 1986 rally car. Droogmand raced 2 cars during that season, this car, British registered C200HVW and another car British registered C200MNO (which was designed for off road and which won the endurance race of 24 heures d’Ypres). The present car, chassis number #SFACXXBJ2CGL00067 has been mostly raced in rally on sealed roads and is lighter and quicker than the second car designed for off road.

It is absolutely original, in excellent condition, never restored, only well maintained. We will have the exact race history before mid-September (as the owner has complete files but is away till then). A very nice and major piece of rally history and would just need some minor calibration in order to be fully race worthy. This splendid rally racer is immediately available in continental Europe for 135,000 Euros all fees and taxes included."
 

The agents inform me she is in France.

A list of works cars from a early RS200 owners club magazine confirms #067 as being C200HVW.

December 2005 - Andy Howdle sent me the below... "Droogmans had crashed C200MNO (#069) his normal rally car in the recce for the 1986 Circuit of Ardennes in Belgium, thus his practice car was quickly prepared for the rally, this is C200HVW.)

September 2006 - A link to the car for sale can be found here but it states it is sold so I am hoping the new owner will get in touch.

October 2006 - Ruud de Leeuw has sent me a link here which shows #067 as for sale for 220.000 Euro.

I have grabbed the (great) images in case they disappear...

If you find any further info on this vehicle please email me on justin@rs200.org
