Anyone remember or have a YouTube link for the rally he loses his lights ?

I thought that was his brother, Alistair, possibly in a yellow car (Proton?)

Or do you mean when Colin was driving the early ford focus and rolled the car heavily on *i think* the RAC rall GB and ended up driving a couple of stages with headlights and bumper missing?

Sure it was when he was with Subaru in the middle of a forrest stage.

Dont recall that tbh but Alistair had just that happen in mid wales im sure

Are you thinking about this video of Robert Kubica by any chance?

He damages one of his spotlights early in the stage and it starts to dazzle him as he drives (f**king fast) through fog. He loses it at one point and almost hits a farmhouse but carries on.

Awesome stuff!

There was a Welsh stage where he turned his headlights off because of them reflecting back in the fog

I'd ask on Britishrallyforum, they seem to know their stuff when it comes to rally history.
