While every effort is made to ensure our historic rally cars are prepared to a high standard, buyers should appreciate that these are competition vehicles. By their very nature, participation in historic rallying places unique demands on both mechanical and electrical systems, and faults can arise despite thorough preparation. Prospective buyers should therefore budget for ongoing maintenance, recommissioning, and event preparation costs as an expected part of ownership.
