I was lucky enough to go to a private test day where there was some interesting cars going round including a group 4 & group B Quattro, I took some videos that I’ve yet to sort out but here is a couple pics of an obscure rally car that some here may enjoy

It’s a Peugeot 104 (aka Talbot Samba)

A Peugeot 104 ZS, not sure if its a groupe 1 or a groupe (or simply a replica).

ps: the 104 was used as the base for the Citroën LN/LNA, Citroën Visa and Talbot Samba ; the Talbot Samba being a very similar looking car in it’s groupe 2 version :

An oppo actually did a private import of the platform mate of this car, a couple years ago:

I had an extremely janky one o f those for a while. They handle like they’re on rails, for a French car of that vintage. Or at least mine did till the strut punched through the wheel arch.

I Love Jonee’s LNA an unreasonably healthy amount....it’s the exact type of car I love so very much, made better by the fact his is the lowest of the range with the same 2-cylinder engine as the low-spec Citroen Visa (based on the 2CV engine!)
