Does anyone know if this still happens or how to contact them?

The website is out of date and they haven't replied to emails.

Website also has a phone number for answering machine but if they don't answer mails I'm not confident they'll answer the phone!

There used to be someone in the UK who organised it from this end but Google shows he's died - did anyone take over from him?

Are you referring to:
Dieppe Rallye Historique (4-5 April 2020);


or
Caux Retro (July 2020) which is 50km inland from Dieppe?

I attended the 2019 Dieppe Rally Historique, which was pretty good. Anyhow both are still on this year apparently.

Neither! Dieppe Retro, usually End of Aug/Start of September.

It's been cancelled due to lack of local support:
