Thread: Ultimate Rally Car Collection Goes Up for Sale

  1. 08-29-2008 03:18 PM #1

    When UK automotive brokers Morris and Welford describe ex Audi Sport UK boss David Sutton's collection of racecars as the 'Ultimate Rally Car Collection', it is a vast understatement. Not surprisingly, this mix of cars is heavy on Audis Quattro racecars, but it also includes icons like the Lancia Stratos and Lotus Cortina - performance benchmarks like the Ford Escort RS200. The downside: You gotta pay to play. It is the intent of the collection owners to sell it as a whole, so... for now... adding these cars to your garage or museum is an all or nothing affair.

    I see neither a Jeep Compass Rally nor a Chevrolet Cavalier Rallye in that collection.

    Just import? No export?
    Man...sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived. - Tenzin Gyatso

    These things look like poorly put together model cars in these pics.

    they aren't supposed to be pretty, they usually get ripped apart in races, plus normal steel body panels would bend and buckle after being taken off jumps numerous times

    I understand such, though my observation stands.
