Got to be the ultimate or most iconic team that, Colin Mcrae, Nicky Grist in a Subaru, cnat be beaten!Quote:

And now having seen those pics im in haven, anyone that never heard a pukka Escort WRC in the forests seriously missed out. To this day the anti lag is still brutal, love it!

how about prictures of private WRCs? there was some beautiful liveries... also a question: why were private Impreza WRC99s sold with a manual h-pattern gearbox when they ran the paddleshift as works cars? i remember a few of them here in ireland... V10 WRC,T11 SRT and a few more spring to mind...
Good old days..

Ten times better then now..
My favourite car... Escort WRC!!! What a shame haven't won more trophies
I was too late involved to see the Escort in WRC. I know the car of some pictures from books. I became a rally fan in 1999/2000.
I liked the Focus in safari outfit.
http://www.juwra.com/images/kuvitus/949_mcrae.jpg
The car I liked the most is Focus 03/04/05

And the 206 is a nice one too.

I was sitting in Kankunen's '98 Safari Escort (with stickers from Kenya's sponsorship or whatever..)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I do not know why but those reflective windows make the cars look even more beautifull.
Safari is special, and cars with the safari dress are so wellQuote:

The Escort is possibly the nicest sounding WRC , with the beautiful anti-lag working at 100% :D

I hate when people compare the N4 bangs with this ... Two different worlds in my opinion . N4 sounds are the ONLY loud sound coming from the car , and they are long , quiet , ... Total opposite of the Escort bangs :)
This is a hungarian ESCORT WRC:
WRC300-Habermann99Transpetrol Senica rally.
Rented from Szeleczky Tamás.

From 24 seconds onwards on video 3, exactly how a wrc car should sound, no better sound on any wrc since in my opinion! :)
Does anyone on here really pay any attention to the opinions of some people who claim that N4 cars are as quick now. Is there any evidence to support thei theories? (apart from stagetimes....obviously)
if stage times aren't evidence what is ??
Seat Cordoba, Skoda Octavia. I always have had a weak spot for those. And the Pug 206. And I've always hated the 307, that was butt-ugly. And the Citroens are just boring. Every single one of them. Except for the monster B-group BX, that was so ugly it was nearly good looking. :)
Onboard Escort WRC....enjoy
