Group B?

OK then!

Popped over to see a mate this morning, something I had been meaning to do for weeks and here is why!

Forgive my crap photo skills including a world class thumb on the lens shot, but you get the idea. We went out for a run in the RS200 and it is of course as epic as you might expect with a waste gate from the gods. Brilliant cars, special and proper stuff from a great age and truly epic stuff. My sort of collection this.

Lunatic cars, very jealous of you getting a passenger ride, never mind whoever owns them!

I hate you and your friend.

Looks like a real life scale version of something you would ride on when you were 5.

You're 16, you were dead when these were around.

Incredible, thanks for sharing!

They look so clean, are they used much?

Amazing pieces of machinery. Your mate is one lucky (and I'm guessing well off) individual!!!

Both get used lightly, the 6R4 in some competition.

Blimey! A real 6R4 and RS200 in the same picture.
Epic cars from when rallying was mental.

Martynt74 · 14 Jun 2013 at 15:33

Jeeesus, knew these would be rare but looking now and a few are going for close the £100k! (Rs200's)

SHEDDER1uk · 14 Jun 2013 at 15:51

For anyone who doesn't know what these were like back in the day youtube group b rally cars. The sound they make alone is awesome.

If you don't know what they are and why they are so cool, punch yourself in the face.
