Poking around Pistonheads I came across this...
It wouldn't make me a better driver, but boy would it bring a smile to my face!
Who can lend me some money to buy it?

As with anything though, just because it's advertised at that price doesn't mean anyone is going to pay it....
A common argument i have with people over the value of certain items.
After seeing the prices that some other cars have made recently, I would expect that to sell at the advertised price or very close to it. If it was up for auction and two (rather well off) collectors wanted it, then . . . . . . . $$$$$$$$$$$
That's a 50% markup on it's sale price 4 months ago..

For similar money an ex Ari Vatanen group b example could have been bought a couple years ago.

Im with Conrod, a Rs200 would be real nice, as these French things leave me cold, and do not raise any form of interest

I'm forever grateful that I'm old enough to remember cold nights in the forests with group B rally cars coming in the distance popping &
banging and then having them hurtle past and watching the drivers battling to control them
Bloody brilliant 
RS200 for me too though I am partial to a 6R4.
My boss is a very successful rally driver, he was thinking of buying a 6R4 many moons ago so hired one for an event. He says it's the scariest
thing he had ever driven! So short and unstable it was laughable! He even managed to clear a hedge in it. Car and hedge were undamaged somehow!
Er look at this beastie. Ugly as fook but what a cracker

I know it wasn't Group B but Tony Pond in a TR7 was a little bit special. What a legend.
