So what has happened to the Impreza WRC that he has? Or does he just bring that out for the odd event.

Where is now S50 WRT, S60 WRT, S80 WRT, S90 WRT (S17 GGC) and S700 WRT ?

S70 WRT is with George Cullen or Barry Johnson ?

S60 WRT is in Ireland with Niall Maguire
S90 WRT (S17 GGC) is in Ireland with George Cullen and is not Melvyn Evans' car as Nick has explained
S700 WRT as far as I know is still with Kevin Lynch
S70 WRT has been Barry Johnsons since 2004

Thanks, it´s just missing S50 WRT that was in the hands of Juan Luis Cruz (and still is?) and S80 WRT that I do not have any information about his location.

Could somebody do me a favour and post up the information from the Martin Holmes books on the chassis numbers and WRC events that Impreza World Rally Cars have been used on since 1997.

Thanks

Thanks Sardalense. Its a bit small though. Any chance of a bigger copy?

Juan Luiz Cruz is down on the entry list for the XXIII Rallye Villa de Santa Brigida this weekend in an Impreza WRC so I would assume it is S50 WRT.

Also i think RT53 SRT was said to be the car that Juan Pablo Raies used in South America.

Just to clear this up. The real S90 WRT has the number plate S17 GGC and belongs to George Cullen in Ireland. The plate S90 WRT was purchased to go on the car that Melvyn Evans has.

Last rally of S80 WRT was in Corsica 2003, Benoit Rousselot drove the car and had an accident on SS9, maybe the car is destroyed, I don´t know how bad was the accident...

S100 WRT was bought prior to and used on Donegal 2006. The car is run by McKinstry Motorsport, and I don't think it was the car you saw next to S600 WRT.

- James Kirtley's registered W635 XBA

The Fleck S7/9 car is chassis 01.002 (X626 OFC) - think it was a Prodive test car for S9 components.

Do you mean Paul Kirtley? Think Kirtley's are/were MSP, and am guessing W635 XBA is a non-Prodrive built car.

First, thanks for your new informations.

Second, you are saying that the S90 WRT that is with Melvyn Evans now and was with Steve Fleck in 2006, is 01.002 but with S9 specifications?

Steves S9 (now with Melvyn Evans) may have been this car but when he bought it from Prodrive it came as a box of bits along with a brand new S9 shell. However the new car has no ID or Prodrive Chassis number as that was retained by Prodrive after the testing accident in which the original shell was destroyed.

As for W635 XBA then yes agreed - it is a non Prodrive built car from MSP built from a 98 shell with various 98, 99 and 00 spec bits fitted to it. Again no Prodrive chassis number or ID.

Hope that helps

Thanks for posting those up for me Sardalense.

Can someone help me with a query I have on X8 SRT. Achim Mortl wrote it off on the Mont Blanc rally in 2001 yet it appeared on Corsica the following year in the hands of Benoit Rousselot. Is this the same car? I'm inclined to think that it isn't as X2 SRT was re-registered as S200 USA and then X8 SRT.

Cheers
