With group A engine just rebuilt, ready to race.

OK not as perfect but a big price difference.

Thought I'd revive this old post.

I was just browsing through the new release books (fathers day) at Waterstones and came across the brand new Top Gear 'Greatest Drives' book, flicked through to see what they had, and was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a massive 5 or 6 page feature on the 126 group 6!

I'm not sure if it is just a glossy reproduction of the Top Gear article mentioned in this thread or not, but either was it is pretty cool to see the 126 getting some of the respect it deserves.
