TUD 683T

This number was used on two different cars. The first was a LHD version used in 1979 by Simo Lampinen, its best result was on that years RAC rally where it finished 17th overall. The second car to use this number was the RHD version, built for Tony Pond when he returned to BL in 1980.This was Tony Ponds favourite car, not only did it win two rallies on tarmac but was also very quick in the forests, this is why he used it in the 1980 RAC. It ran with Pierburg fuel injection on one rally in 1980. In its final rally it was fitted with the JJO 931W plate to make it look newer and the TUD 683T plate was fitted to a recce car.
