(Ex-WRC Escort Cosworth - Well driven, and very very quick!)

(Ex-Miki Biasion 1985 Monte Carlo Delta S4)

Image

Image

(An Esprit, at some point?!)

Image

(Manta 400)

(RS200 - Don't know the history, and it was a static display... :( )

Image

(R5 Turbo Toooooooo)

(Ex- Kenneth Eriksson WRC Impreza, sister car to McRae's N555BAT - David Llewellin (x3 BRC winner) was driving this at times, and he was very handy behind the wheel).

Great pics Ross, thanks for sharing.

I think that Esprit started out in life as a Rally Cross car.

Race Retro - "The Historic Motorsport Show" - Rallyist leanings, but Damon Hill was there this year for a Q&A surrounded by his old F1 cars.
