They gonna make it look like the Polo?

Not exactly news or rumours although I had the chance to shoot this replica RS1800 today. The car runs a genuine Cosworth engine, period correct brakes and suspension and has been built from the ground up. The car is currently running 285BHP at the rear wheels and sounds fantastic. A quick shot of it below.

If you can't win you can always change livery to switch the focus....

Nice, looks like a car. Where?

What's the intended use?

Malcolm Wilson wants to trick Latvalla, believing he is driving the VW Polo WRC, but still is kept tied to M-Sport?

The car is in New Zealand, and is going to be used for tarmac circuit racing, as well as classic Targa rally events. It's certainly not a show pony and has been built purely for competition.

Nasser Al-Attiyah has qualified himself to the final of mens' skeet in London Olympic Games.

Final starts at 14:00 (15:00 CET)
