I made a Geoguessr map since we can't get out on the stages. Try and guess the WRC stages, the closer you get the more points and you have and 2min in each location. If you think It's fun i might post some more

Wow, a small player here for a long time now, but it'll be odd not to see them at all. While I appreciate we're talking from a biased position, I really think both Mitsubishi and Subaru have really suffered, far more than they could have imagined, from leaving rallying. Rallying might not be that big anymore, but they really have left the public consciousness almost completely, in the UK at least. Maybe we under appreciate it, but Rallying and the 'halo models' they produced for these companies really did have a value that shouldn't have been thrown away. For smaller players, I think rallying really does work effectively as a marketing tool. If Ford or Toyota left, the impact would probably be indiscernible in their sales figures due to their size, but I believe the smaller manufacturers allow you to see its impact.
Good news for Isuzu and Toyota dealers in rural areas!Last edited by the sniper; 28th July 2020 at 16:44.

It took until the Evo 6 for Mitsubishi UK (Colt Cars) to officially import the car into the UK; before that, most of the Lancer Evos seen in forest car parks were 'grey imports'. And I remember a story told in MNews (by Jerry Williams, I think); it was about major party/event taking place at the same weekend, as the RAC Rally; this was mid/late 90s. All the big hitters/main dealers were at the party, as opposed to being at the WRC event. The main point being they hadn't really got behind the WRC effort at that time.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Shame Mitsubishi has pulled out of Europe - not too far into the future it is likely to give Mitsubishi the excuse to pull out of all right hand drive markets with non-JDM models, (if further cost cutting is required) as the right hand vehicle models have their own development costs in addition to left hand drive vehicles. I guess that Evo eleven is not going to happen.
