Group B cars are just awesome, aren"t they? Given the chance, we"d totally have one (or two, or six) in our fantasy garage. We might even be tempted by this one a 1985 MG Metro 6R4. So it"s not an Audi Quattro, Peugeot 205 T16 or Ford RS200 but it is a genuine, Group B rally car from the WRC"s heyday. And a reasonably successful one at that. Group B began in 1982, with regulations allowing for the most extreme rally cars ever. Austin Rover wanted in, but thought developing a Group B car was beyond its means. But at the time it was a sponsor of the Williams F1 team, so it called upon them to lend a hand. As you would.
