Haven't done one of these yet so...

 

My mex is a Historic Rally Car soon to be out on the stages again.. It has competed in loads of rallys ie The Roger Albert Clark, Buldog, Ypres etc

 

Its undergoing a bit of a restoration atm with a hot crossflow going in, respray and a few upgrades (I will have to get a resto thread going soon..)

It was at Ypres in 2000, although it has competed there three times so I guess it will have been there between 1998-2002

It has been out on the Manx as well but i'm not sure of the dates.. Am hopefully going to get an email pretty soon detailing these.
