Nice list Comper100 - I'd have to add a Stratos though. If you goto the German Rally - they run a demonstration classic rally with the WRC cars. You will see every car you've mentioned (bar the Legacy

) - we did in 2004. Watching (and listening) to those cars climb through the vineyards will live long in my memory.

Hopefully i'm going to Killarney Rally of the Lakes this year, usually they have lots of Old Group B action.

I would have loved to have been there when they were racing!

Have to make do with the Wyedean rally this weekend lol.

Ps, yeah forgot the Stratos, oh and the T16 205!

Great pics BTW.

For me it has to be the Audi Quattro as that was the daddy of rallying when I was a kid, all the above are amazing cars but no 1 has to be the Audi for me. Edited to add a very close no 2 though is the Lancia Delta Integrale - I used to want one of those so badly as a kid.

That video is awesome!

He gets soo close to the sides, and the bit where the drives one handed with his other hand blocking the sun is fantastic!

Anyone spot the Suzuki escudo broken down on the side about half way up.

Sounds sooo cool too!
