SUMMARY
A well built and maintained historic rally Lotus Cortina that's been driven by two of BritainÔÇÖs rally legends.
DESCRIPTION
- Originally built by David Sutton Motorsport to FIA Appendix K regulations
- The brief was to source the best period shell available for Roger Clark and Tony Mason
- This left-hand drive car was sourced in California (Autumn 1990) and prepared for the 1991 Autoglass RAC Rally
- Featured in Autosport/Top gear (1992) when Colin McRae and Roger Clark swapped cars
- Multiple rally wins and class wins during the nineties. Last rallied in 2004
- Purchased in 2010 and occasionally used for corporate demonstrations/Goodwood Festival of Speed etc.
- The car's original preparer (ex-DS Motorsport) still looks after its regular maintenance
- Current V5c and rally-ready (apart from some out of date safety items)
Later in that year Colin McRae and Roger Clark swapped cars for Top Gear and Autosport magazine feature where they each drove the Lotus Cortina and Colin's Rothmans Subaru Legacy. The magazine is on file and the film features on YouTube
