Rally driven engineering
At MATS BV, We started with rally, and rally for us is more than sport – it’s our way of life. From the twisty road in Corsica, to the gravel roads of Wales, our team has competed and supported on international events for years. We combine our rally & racing experience with engineering expertise, ensuring every car that leaves our workshop is built to win.
Tailor-Made Performance
Every car at MATS BV is built to match the exact needs of its driver. From custom setups to precision engineering, no detail is left to chance. We work closely with every customer to create a vehicle that delivers the right balance of performance, reliability, and control, both on the road and in competition.
Build to win
Our cars are not only custom-built for performance, but also proven at the highest level of competition. Over the years, MATS BV vehicles have secured multiple victories and podium finishes across various rally events. Each win reflects the combination of precision engineering, driver expertise, and relentless attention to detail that defines our workshop.

M3 E30 – Rally
[ Tarmac ]
Over 75 BMW M3 E30s built, and every one has made us better at building the next. Our team has developed proprietary components for tarmac performance, each one designed to extract more from a chassis that was already exceptional from the factory. Every car leaves our workshop FIA homologation compliant and set up to fight for results. This is our core expertise, and it shows in the detail.

M3 E30 Gr-A
[ Circuit ]
The BMW M3 E30 was a tarmac car. We built it into a gravel one. Our team developed purpose-built components through rigorous testing to address everything the standard platform could not deliver on loose surfaces. The car that came out the other side is FIA homologation compliant and proven to compete for wins on gravel. This is new ground for the E30, opened up by our own engineering.

M3 E30 – Gravel
[ Gravel ]
The E30 M3 was built for circuit racing first. Our circuit specification brings it back to that purpose, applying our motorsport experience to a closed-surface environment where aerodynamics, consistent braking performance, and suspension precision matter above all else. DTM-influenced geometry, multi-piston brake packages, and in-house developed components combine into a car that is properly prepared for historic circuit competition and set up to compete at the front.

M3 E30 DTM
[ Tarmac ]
Starting from an original DTM chassis, our team has recreated this car to full factory specification, sourcing and where necessary custom manufacturing the parts that make it correct in every detail. The result is visually and mechanically identical to the cars that dominated German touring car racing. Tested in competition and proven at the front of the field, this is not a tribute or an approximation. It is the real thing, brought back to life.

M3 E36 – Rally
[ Tarmac ]
The E36 M3 is not a homologated historic rally car. It is simply a very good one. The straight-six engine offers strong, consistent power delivery and the multi-link rear suspension gives the chassis real setup potential. We build each E36 to the same standard as our E30 programme, with in-house developed components and a clear focus on results. For competitors who want a BMW rally car outside the FIA historic classes, this is the build.

E36 STW
[ Tarmac ]
The BMW E36 STW dominated European touring car racing for the better part of a decade. A 2.0 litre S42 engine screaming to 9,000rpm. Over 300 horsepower in a 1,000kg chassis. Period-correct aerodynamics built for one purpose. We are producing a full series of these cars, each built to exact STW specification with the same precision and attention to detail that defines everything we make. Not a replica. A proper STW, built right, built consistently, and ready to race.

E30 Club Sport – Road legal
[ Tarmac ]
There is only one way to build a true DTM E30 M3: exactly as BMW Motorsport built it in period. Starting from an original DTM chassis, our team has recreated this car to full factory specification, sourcing and where necessary custom manufacturing the parts that make it correct in every detail. The result is visually and mechanically identical to the cars that dominated German touring car racing. Tested in competition and proven at the front of the field, this is not a tribute or an approximation. It is the real thing, brought back to life.
The cars tell part of the story.
The team and workshop tell the rest.
