"Don't race it unless you're on dirt!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Cracked cylinder head @ about 300,000 (it had a reconditioned engine put in).

Fatal collision resulting in a bent chassis was unable to be repaired because of rust.

General comments?

A good first car... and a great rally car! Constant feedback from the steering wheel & gearbox added to great chassis balance means this car is best driven sliding sideways.

The most fun I've had, but sadly this car died a rally death... *sniff*

Great for rally is right - I used mine for 3 years (1997 to 2000) for rallies in Canada with no trouble until the front sub-frame broke. Awaiting repair and passing the safety engineers tests. I love the car!
