Inside the Donkervoort, a Dutch super car like no other

The Donkervoort P24 RS is a unique Dutch supercar that stands out from other high-performance vehicles. Built in the Netherlands since 1978, the brand traces its origins to Joop Donkervoort, who was inspired by a Lotus Seven he saw during a school trip to Britain. Donkervoort cars have evolved over time, but they continue to maintain the lightweight, open-wheel design of the Seven.

The P24 RS, now available in right-hand drive, boasts a 3.5-litre V6 engine from the Ford GT supercar, producing 600 horsepower when upgraded. This gives the P24 RS an impressive power-to-weight ratio, outperforming many other supercars. The car's body and front subframe are made from a patented Ex-Core material, which provides strength and lightness.

With advanced suspension and braking systems, the P24 RS offers an exhilarating driving experience. Currently priced at £302,400, this exclusive vehicle is a true standout in the world of supercars.
