Got to be the Mk2 Escort. Still competing today! Audi UR Quattro too.
I'd love to say the RS200, but it didn't really rally very much
I'd love a kit version though!

No, Rally cars got to a stage where everything had to be calmed down but then still....
Is it the cars/drivers fault if spectators are injured.
Bit like standing on a train track and not expecting a train.
The health and safety now in comparison to back then is miles apart.

The RS200 in Portugal was spectators getting in the way, plus the Toivenen crash in Corsica, kinda stopped gr.b before it started.... 
Mental cars though....
Rekon mk1 + 2 Escorts have to be my fave....

The Subaru Imprezza and the Lancia Delta are the most successful rally cars of all time, with both cars having 46 wins in total. One more for the Imprezza and it will be the most successful rally car model of all time.

Not really got into wrc in the last few years.
Funny how, years ago, the Lombard RAC, as it was then, was so much better with things like night stages, and lasting longer than a couple of days... And prime time coverage on BBC2!?
Long gone are those days...

Not a massive Audi fan, but big respect to the technology at the time and dare I say, almost better sounding than a mk1 or 2 barking seats at full chat!
