Driftworks DW32 Nissan Skyline R32 Drift Car
The DW32 is the longest standing competition drift car in the UK. Now driven and maintained by Martin Richards. In the past it has been driven by Driftworks owner James Robinson (who first bought the car in 2005) Then Bon drove it, then Phil in competition. It is very possibly the longest-standing competitive drift car in the world still in use today.
