    On the 1977 Costa Brava Rally, did Bagration donate a spare rear panel (green colour) to Bernard Darniche?

    Hi Chris
    Yes I have... but thanks for the heads up
    Apparently Bagration had major car issues which put him out of the rally...... Darniche smashed his rear end..... so Bagration let them use his !!!

    That figures. He was good at smashing his rear end. 'Had a good go on the '81 TDC. It looks like the chardonnet service crew made some new parts out of alloy, or a cardboard box?

    Maybe he was simply a big Waldegaard fan? Got the body style, but not the colour, so only 7 out of 10.

    Anyway, for some strange reason the thread title made me feel all musical....all together now...."oh this year I'm off to sunny Spain...."
