G'day to you, I was a Member of The Renault Car Club here West Aust . around about this time we had some great Rallies here back then, great way to spend the Weekend!

A thoroughly enjoyable video!! I loved it!! By the way, I hope everyone noticed that I didn’t have to include any infantile negative comments about today’s vehicles.

Muchas gracias por compartir este video,du los rallies de verdad,coches de verdad, pilotos con2volnes y mucha ,mucha afición.

NO Datsun's?

Drop the bombastic music and use the original commentary. The music is telling me nothing about the rally and participants etc. etc.

This is not 1980 but 1974

BTW Lancia won New Zeland in 1983

Is it me or are these faster than todays WRC, They certainly look fasrer

What an excellent result in a standard 120 LS. All praise to Skoda and Haugland. A cracking little film too.

Cracking video. I had one of those BL red, white and blue helmet logos as a sticker in my bedroom after Tony Pond had been to the Manx. Happy Days.

Excellent footage. Only spoilt by Murray Walker's unfortunate inclusion.

Andy Dawson and Tony Fawkes, both accumplished drivers and engineers, both missed out on the manufacturers trophy as team managers, on the very last event of the relevant seasons.

Réal good.

My dad, Peter Easton, flashes by with Gerry Burgess on their way to 4th place in car number 329, Ford Zephyr Mk 1.

Nice 👍

Trop beau 😍 et surtout excellent 👌 Bientôt tout sera électrique : de vrais rasoirs sur 4 roues 🤮

In video is writening XIX, so 19th edition -> 1984!

Great race. Love the Escorts, carrying the inside tires; and the engines, twin cam Lotus engines 😎 Yeah !!!

After watching the narrator I realized who Monty Python were making sport of.

😂racing In one of its purest forms

imagine that now .. stopping a yaris on the rd to ask the driver if they could have the hybrid .. idont think so

How bloody good was calling once.

Great footage, shite music

lovely footage but can't watch because of that awful music

Those Mk1 big wing escorts make my heart flutter!,,, I rallied one of those in that era ( 1600 BDA ) and enjoyed every minute of it !

lancia stratos the best forever!!!!!!

Proper cars not like todays computerised crap

My favorite Era of World Rally. The shots of the 124 Fiat Abarth Rally Spider and the Fiat 131 Rally cars always put a smile on my face. I have a 124 Spider Rally car and drive it whenever I can...those cars from that time were the best, and set the stage for what it is today. Nothing sounds better than a Fiat Lampredi twin cam engine with a set of twin Weber 44 Idfs echoing through the countryside...Bravo video!

Me too, I'm also driving a MINI😂😂

RAC Rally..???????????????

Rallying at it's best and in Britain!

That music!?

Did the welsh in 1971 always a great memory even finished 😀

Excellent! Evokes many happy memories.As they say,when rallying was rallying,just like the Roger Albert Clark Rally is today👍!

What the Finnish rally superpower can be attributed to is called “Sisu” You need to be Finnish to understand it! Closest English translation would be “balls” but it’s more than just that

Brilliant footage. No computers ...mobile phones ....just pure Rallying !

2:29 sound fun

2:04 SS 1 Laajavuori

Dare I say it a lot more exciting than today's international events.

Will Sparrow in the Mini. Possibly his last season in it before swapping to DTV.

1981

This is a jolly interesting rally. It is 2023 and this is the first I've ever heard of it. Skodas are reputed to be good cars in snow and gravel . Merci beaucoup.

Michele Mouton is awesome ❤

1:39, the late Tony Pond (RIP),there has never been a more pleasant driver in the WRC.

According to Mick Jones, after Ken Browns back axle was repaired the dealer had a mishap when trying to deliver the Capri back to Ken and so the damaged car was sent to the works competition department at Boreham for further repairs, when Boreham tried to deliver the car they too had a mishap and eventually it was decided to rewards Ken’s loyalty to the brand with a spanking new car.

This is awesome. I was in New South Wales in 1979. And I saw this on tv. Thanks for the memories. Was this part of the World Rally Championship? I have played WRC 5 and 7,8. and the Land Down Under is tough. Much respect for these working class guys. Who have a love of sports car racing.

1984

So beautifuly political incorrect 😂

At the start. If only fuel was still that price.

Sick tunes.
