WRC - Ford Focus RS WRC - Colin McRae - Autoart

When we talk about rally cars, they must be tough and rough... drivers have to cooperate with their co-drivers and run their cars on straight gravel roads at more than 200km/h... this is WRC (World Rally Championship), one of the most exciting events in the rally calendar. WRC has been getting even more interesting this season... with Kimi Raikkonen joining in the fun... but that's on the drivers' side. On the manufacturer's side, it's just Citroen vs Ford... hmmm...

The first WRC model to be posted here is the 2002 Ford Focus piloted by the legendary Colin McRae with Nicky Grist as the co-driver. This is the Rallye Monte Carlo version produced by Autoart.

  1. What a nostalgic car... it reminded me of Marcus Grönholm who drove the Silver Peugeot 206 WRC to victory in early 2000's.

    Any plan to add new car into your collection cause it has been a while since you last show us your new haul.
