Now you know it's not worth a penny and yeah it is steep but its not just rare it's group B history and seriously quick.  60k is the going rate for one.  I bet it's very hard to find a cheap group B car.  A while back a museum was selling a couple of 205 T16's and I think they went for silly money.

one of them was a 460bhp, rear engined, AWD beast with a 6 speed magnesium gearbox.

pointless car to own.

if you drove it like a rally car something unobtanable would brake, it would sit about for long time waiting for new bit to be found or made.  funny watching the 6r4's in theh wyedean pootel round.

and for 60k  i'm sure i chould buy something far more intresting to look at , or something more fun to drive and faster
