Yes indeed! The Ferrari 308GTS QV also had metric TRX tyres as standard.
Crap tires if you ask me. Nothing better for the street than 'hot' sticky Mich Pilot rubber to achieve better handling/grip and faster lap times... unless we're talking R-compound slicks on a dry track 
Gentlemen, choose your weapon …
I hope everyone has had a good week. Just for fun, give us your choice of one of these legendary cars … Best Captain ...
Tough choice
I would hesitate between: Lancia S4 as it is the wildest one Peugeot as it is the cutest and more civilised one
Certainly 👍…
A man after my own heart. I was lucky enough to have owned two over the years.
Yes, YOU were lucky indeed! ... and what about the Ford Festiva SHOgun? Like the R5 engine was moved from the front to where the back seat was and it was quite an engine!
The Yamaha massaged V6 from the Taurus SHO! Same concept as these hot little boxes!
Group B …
The rules of Group B created these fabulous cars and allowed us to enjoy the cars on the road. Special moments that I will treasure forever. ...
It would be nice to see a return of Group B,
for both the races and the homologation examples which, with a little luck (and cash), could be purchased by the general public.
Easy for me
The R5, as I owned this car until the Lancia delta integrale arrived at my parking, Kept missing the R5 until I got it back..
Fabulous ! …
We have followed the same road … I’ve had two R5 Turbos and later a Delta Integrale. They were all such fun to own. I miss the 5 Turbo and am currently looking for a good one, not an easy one to find.
Colours …
My R5 Turbo was red and my Group B Maxi was yellow and white (all Maxi 5’s were basically white)
The Renault and the Audi
I’ve got my arrows on a different 5. The Turbo is iconic and i seen a few in my life. Week two this year was and is still a Renault 5 week for me in terms of buying this year a new 5E. 400 km range and the iconic design. The super5 is a Renault that i kno...
Have to go with the 3rd one
... since I had an Audi Coupe GT for a few years. Fun car and distinctive looking for its time.
Last year I saw a short wheelbase Quattro on the motorway 👀…
I just couldn’t believe my eyes 🤩
I'd select three trusted friends and share the entire lot...
So we can drive the four cars in rotation. And no, I don't have any preference, all of them are as incredible as absurd! ;-)
It would be better to ask the other two friends.
Anyway, I'm sure you'll be happy with either the S4 or the Audi. I'm ok with the T16, for a start!
You make an interesting point …
The tyre choice back in the day was the Michelin TRX … horrendous in anything other than bone dry conditions and not that good then due to the hard compound. Switching to Michelin TB15 a tarmac rally tyre transformed the car.

There are tough choices and then ...
... there are even tougher choices ... I have no clue which one to take. Probably the Renault 5 Turbo would do it for me but oh man that Sportquattro ... 5.665.000 Francs back I 198something .... 306 hp .... epic looks.
Oh decisions decisions
I think I would go with the Audi, but the 5 turbo is a close second….
Tough..Audi though.
Made me go to youtube and watch old videos of Group B rallys. Mad cars, mad crowds, big balls driving!
Audi,
as a child of this era I adored the Audi. I was a proud owner of the Darda slot car, my fastest car at that time 😀 ...
