The Belkits 1:24 MG Metro 6R4 RAC Lombard Rally 1986 J. McRae/I. Grindrod from the plastic car model kits range accurately recreates the real life rally car. Created for the short lived Group B rally category, the 4WD mid engined MG Metro 6R4 of 1984 (6-cylinder, Rear engine, 4-wheel-drive) was a world away from the best selling city car to which it bore only a superficial cosmetic resemblance. The car was to participate in the Lombard RAC rally in November 1985 driven by works driver Tony Pond who finished a highly respectable third, behind two Lancia Delta S4s. The car was then driven a year later, in the 1986 RAC Rally, by Jimmy McRae and Ian Grindrod. They couldn't quite live up to the 3rd place earned by Pond the year before but they did mange to bag themselves a very respectable 8th place. This model requires paint and glue to complete.
