Gruen appeared a couple of times in 1985 right?

The European Corrollas I remember were the Castrol Team Toyota Denmark car of John Nielsen and Erik Hoyer (the latter who had pedalled Dolomites and RS2000's in Group1 a few years earlier IIRC) in 1984 which was the car to beat in Class 1.

KA, I remember Marlboro and FINA backed entries in 1988, don't know if they're the ones you mean? The Fina team which I think was run by RAS formerly of Volvo fame? featured a quite well know rally driver of the time I think Van De Warwe (sp?!!!!) or something along with some other handy Belgians of the era.

Can't recall them all at this point!
