This rather mean-looking RS200 is the latest British attempt to conquer the mighty Pikes Peak hill climb by Brit rallycross star Liam Doran.
If you haven't heard of Liam, he's the chap who trounced Travis Pastrana and co at the LA X Games last summer, putting a few Californian 'extreme' noses out of joint in the process.
He also happens to be the son of rallycross legend (and 1992 European rallycross runner-up) Pat Doran.
The car itself, which was originally a German hill climb car and is the sister to Pat Doran's former steed, has been built with the help of Forge Motorsport.
It's a determinedly old-school effort, too, with a BDT engine like the original RS200 (albeit bored-out to 2.4-litres from 1.8) and an H-patter X-Trac five-speed transmission.
