It says Ringshausen in the wind screen and having red interior I'm guessing it could have been Frank Biela's 1987 DTM car, before switching to an Eggenberger RS500. I'm not sure Ringshausen build their own cars, and with Ronal rims, I'm guessing it could be a car sourced from HWRT/Wolf Racing.
Anyway the pictures of the car are identified from being from round 11 of the 1987 championship held at Montlhéry on October 11, with Philip de Henning driving. So way after the final race of the DTM, which ended unusually early that year - something like August.
