Eifelland was named after its owner Günther Hennerici's caravan manufacturing company. The name Eifelland was chosen after the Eifel mountains close to the Nürburgring.
Eifelland were a team backed by caravan and camping magnate Gunther Henerici under his company name and were most famous for buying an F1 March 721 and fitting it out with supposedly aerodynamic bodywork developed by Luigi Colani.
In 1971 Günther Hennerici decided to expand his activities to motor racing and founded his own team, Eifelland. Initially the team competed mostly in Formula Three, with drivers such as Willi Deutsch, Gerd Koppenhauser, Erwin Derichs, Hans Hargarten and Werner herself. In 1972 he chose to graduate to Formula One and field one single car with Rolf Stommelen at the wheel. The car was based on a March 721 Formula One car, redesigned by German designer Luigi Colani.
After a couple of unsuccessful seasons, in 1974 Hennerici sold the team and his caravan company and retired.
