    Hmm, Thanks for that B4' I'll look into it. I'll probably take them anyway though

    we'll take the lot mate but we're not in a rush for it. My bro will be working 4-on 4-off between Cornwall and Essex as of next month so there will be loads of opportunities to collect. don't trouble yourself today if it's a pain

    Yes sadly these rule changes lead to the banning of several well nown cars that no longer conform, most notable Andy Burtons Peugot 306 special that was almost a space frame WRC car based on a 306 with ice racing bodywork and a full house Cosworth engine and 4 wheel drive. look up the on going discussions on Google) .

    There are a few Mr2's used in club rallying though AW11rally has a very well known example and Im have seen another from a garage in Wigan but have no details. There is also a big winged version down south that appears iun a youtube clip (cannot remember which one though)

    That Peugeot is a monster!! How come they couldn't just put some steel doors on it? Ive been talking to AW11Rally a bit he's a super nice guy. Do you know of anyone competing one on gravel stages?

    Andy Burtons 306, what a machine.
    The days of seeing that on the Sunseeker Rally were amazing, the sound of that engine echoing through the forest was a petrol heads dream.
