HRW 251V

The 6th LHD car built and also the last new car built (and actually used) by the factory, driven by Per Eklund, Timo Makinen and John Buffum during 1980. Its only success in that year was Eklund's second place in the Daily Mirror Rallysprint. Used by John Buffum in the 1980 Lombard RAC, fitted with Pierburg fuel injection, also used in the 1981 event but re painted in the silver colours of Leycare and returned to quad Webbers. This car was always LHD when used by the factory.
