On December 10, 2020, Roland D'Ieteren passed away due to Covid-19. He was 78 years old.
The great merits of this man for the economy of our country are widely reported in the media.
However, he was also a driving force behind Autoworld.
He was one of the founders of the museum and was a member of the Board of Directors for more than 30 years.
His passion for the automobile, his legendary reputation in the classic car world and his extensive international network were valuable assets. He set new standards and his enthusiasm and charisma made him a great motivator for the whole team.
His death is an immense loss, not only for the museum, it will linger throughout the classic automotive world for a long time to come.
All our thoughts go out to his loved ones. Covid cruelly took an exceptional lover away from them.
