Fantastic car though.

It wasn't a still born at all.

It was first built to be a Group B Rally car & competed with great success, but to qualify for FIA reg's, they had to build 200 of them, just like the Audi Sport Quattro's etc.

The short production run also made the price very high.

They did make them, but at a time when Ferrari also had the world beating F40 & Jad had the XJ220

Very hard to compete with that.

A bloke my brother used to work with told use some storie's when he went over sea's for training & drove them.

Awesome!

Also the only car to win both Le Mans(1986, first in its class, 7th outright) and the 1985 Paris Dakar(1-2 finish)
