Default Was the Caped Crusader into Group B?!

Paid a visit to the new Wayne Manor this morning, funnily enough with my colleague who is called Bruce!!

It then occurred to me that we had inadvertently driven Stage 1 of the 1985 Lombard RAC!!....erhurm!.....4 times!!

Yes I noticed the 80 quattro too. Most interesting is that it is on 5 stud hubs!!!

I wish I'd have known you back then Bry I'd have took you.!! There was nothing like it mate. Cheese Sandwiches, flasks of coffee and sleeping in the car for two nights! Mint! The 80s were practically sport spec underneath and entered as Group A cars.
