I think a well driven Gp4 spec lightweight tar Mk2 could still get top ten, but you would need a spanking BDA/G or a highly tuned Vauxhall to get there.

The thing I did notice with these boys was they could all damn drive!

A lot of rich toffs buy WRC cars and always have done and can't drive them for toffee, and they don't work properly unless you drive them properly. These newer Mk2 lads are clearly well off, but can at least pedal.

A top end Millington is perhaps 330hp, and you are talking 200k for the whole build with boxes, suspension, labour. They are no proper Escorts sadly, but they still look and sound great!
