A thoroughly enjoyable video!! I loved it!! By the way, I hope everyone noticed that I didn’t have to include any infantile negative comments about today’s vehicles.

Drop the bombastic music and use the original commentary. The music is telling me nothing about the rally and participants etc. etc.

What an excellent result in a standard 120 LS. All praise to Skoda and Haugland. A cracking little film too.

Cracking video. I had one of those BL red, white and blue helmet logos as a sticker in my bedroom after Tony Pond had been to the Manx. Happy Days.

Andy Dawson and Tony Fawkes, both accumplished drivers and engineers, both missed out on the manufacturers trophy as team managers, on the very last event of the relevant seasons.

My favorite Era of World Rally. The shots of the 124 Fiat Abarth Rally Spider and the Fiat 131 Rally cars always put a smile on my face. I have a 124 Spider Rally car and drive it whenever I can...those cars from that time were the best, and set the stage for what it is today. Nothing sounds better than a Fiat Lampredi twin cam engine with a set of twin Weber 44 Idfs echoing through the countryside...Bravo video!

What the Finnish rally superpower can be attributed to is called “Sisu” You need to be Finnish to understand it! Closest English translation would be “balls” but it’s more than just that
