It's a shame that the Safari is no longer part of the WRC. Safari is now being held as a round of the IRC ( & ARC, Africa Rally Championship) which the Safari will be part of, for the first time in March 2007.
Will get some info and post in a tad.

I spotted the 2 A/C pipes still coming through the bulkhead in one of the pics posted. Be well worth it in your country! (and the UK too...)

Default yes!

Hi guys, been sometime since I updated this.

The car competed over the weekend in Kenya, in the KCB SAFARI RALLY (9th-10th March), a round of the local Kenya Rally Championship, the FIA African Rally Championship and the Intercontinental Rally Challenge.

Baldev Chager & Farouq Yusuf finished 6th overall after a few problems on day one which were expected due to the car being new.
the crew is looking forward to the season to come. I will keep this updated.
