What's your favourite rally-inspired road car?
Discussion
There have been many great rally-inspired road cars over the years and I can't really think of a bad one off the top of my head, although I'm sure there is a diesel Citroen Xsara Loeb edition or something out there somewhere!
So, Quattros, Pulsars, Imprezas, Evos, mk1/2 Escort RSs, Cossies. What's you favourite? My favourites are probably the rally-inspired Lancias.

Bugger. Was looking for a picture to post and you beat me to it. The 037 would be mine too. Gorgeous car.Ordinarily I'd happily agree with the Stratos but... just to be a different I'm going for the MG 6R4 Clubman, the road going version of the nutty 6R4S.
Ugly little bleeder but still, there's a lure there for me, probably because my first two cars were Metro's and I've always had a thing for the later BL stuff, predominantly stuff with a Rover badge. Might just have something to do with having been brought up with BL motors (Acclaim, Dolomite, a succession of Rovers and Austins) even learned the basics of driving at ten in my grandmothers, rusting, Maxi.

Would have to be either the intergrale's big brother, the delta S4 (or even the ECV), otherwise I would go for a 205 T16. Was a privilege to see these cars at full chat in the forests during the late 80's
Never to be repeated.
Though I do like the idea of a road 037 as very few would have a clue what it was

For my generation (born in the 90's) rally has been quite boring, we missed the group B era, RWD, all we get is spaceframed hatchbacks with regulation engines. Gran Turismo gave my generation their rally heroes so thats where I will draw my inspiration from.
Got to be the Lancer Evolution TME, It even has the drivers name on it. COOL.
