Vintage Metro 6R4's
Selection of Groub B Metros!
Always liked Rob Gibsons, seemed to sit lower than all the others and always kept the same colour,plain and simple but always in the thick of the action.Rob Gibson in the British Grands Prix's always refused to take the parade lap at the start of the main final what a rebel( Why did he do that)  Over to you folks! In the Gollop pic Who owns the metro behind his! nice colour scheme and also nice laydee next to Will

The Car Glass car in the bottom pic looks like Paul Kumpen, but didn't Steve Palmer run in Car Glass colours at one point? |

Yep Steve did run in car Glass colours for a while but that Pic is from the Internations at croft!. Morten Anderson name rings a bell, if i remember i think he got the car late just at the end of the groub b era! Didnt he used to Rallycross a porsche or am i getting mixed up?

I think maybe he'd run Porsches before taking time out, but that would have been before I started watching rallycross in 89 Last edited by KA; 21 Jan 2007 at 11:39. |

Its definately Mortens car, not sure where it went, might have gone to Belgium or something I reckon!
He was OK in it, but didnt do too many meetings I think. As for Palmer, I think what happened was that he flogged the engine of his car, teh big 3.8 one to Kumpen, then somathing happened and he got it back in the car aswell. For a time he was just using a stock 3 litre, and also ran a 2,8 clubmans spec engine once aswell! |

Indeed, Paul had two Metro's I think, one big engine car for himself and another for Ludo Steukers who was arguably quicker!
Not sure where he got either car from! |
