After almost a year of planning
the opportunity arose to purchase a full blown rally car with history
that dates back to 1986 with its original driver American John Woodner
and the Peugeot Sport UK rally team.
The opportunity to buy the
fully rebuilt and immaculate T16 evo 2 came about as top Newzeland rally
drive Peter Johnson had spend 4 years restoring the car with NZ preparation
ace Rom Macmillan on the spanners. Between them they had not only rebuilt
the T16 back to its original glory but in a no expenses spared program
had actually developed the car into a reliable car that could be used
on modern day 600 mil rallies in the Newzeland TARGA rally championship.
The T16 Evo2 is now run and
maintained in the UK and is just about the only car of its type regularly
running on display and competition events around the world. The t16
server as a flagship for the 205 Challenge and its new owner and driver
Kevin Furber finally realises his dream of driving A Turbo GPB after
years of trying to achieve this when he was a works driver for Peugeot
UK back in the 90s.
