michael Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 I agree with all of this (which proves my age) - but I still have trouble with terms "Ford" and "£100K" in the same sentence.... Does Reliant RS200 sound any better? Thought not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondango Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 im still looking the full video of this Mach1 entered an evo in 2002 for Pikes peak with Stig blomqvist at the wheel, ive seen some nice machinery go up the peak but always wanted to see the rs200 do it Indeedy, I like the normal RS200 road cars too but an Evolution is the ultimate.

jevansio Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 If your dreams do come across a spare £100K, don't do this: You'll need an account to view it (it is free though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondango Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 If your dreams do come across a spare £100K, don't do this: You'll need an account to view it (it is free though) Thats the Crash that ended rallying as we knew and loved it , and for Ford - it left them with a warehouse full of rs200's that they couldnt even sell due to the other crash shortly afterwards - the stock market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 I remember that What's more tragic is that despite bans on Group B the cars are still fast and spectators are still able to get close to the road, especially overseas... it could happen again.

Ewen Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Interesting quotes "The (Group B) cars were so fast that a driver's eyes didn't have time to adjust their focus properly between corners" (1986) "Henri Toivonen drove an (Group B) S4 around Estoril, the Portuguese Grand Prix circuit, so quickly that he would have qualified sixth for the 1986 Portuguese Grand Prix" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkirby Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 certainly is a blast from the past ive actually had a good look round this car, it used to be in a garage in standish and when they went "bump" went to ron hodgesons who had it up for £100k?? they must have sold it on or something LOL nice but could think of other cars i would rather have for £100k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
