(Rated 4 out of 5)

As you would expect - if you are a connoisseur of rally films - this BHP produced compilation is great.

Good film work, great editing and a very informative and never dull commentary from Steve Rider helps bring back memories of World of Sport British Open Rally Championship reports as well as act as a nice, repeatable, slice of nostalgia for when rallying was fun and photogenic.

(Rated 4 out of 5)

All in all a very good package,
but there's a lack of statistics that I found a bit frustrating while watching, the narration is on the other hand very good.

Sound and picture are of varying, but overall good quality.

The film dosen't show the diversity of rallying in the early 80's as good as I hoped it would.
There is a lot of focus on the Audi Quattro of course,
but rallies like the tour of Corsica of 82 had competitive entries from Renault, Ferrari, Porsche, Opel, BMW, Audi and Lancia and there's no footage from this rally in the film.

The Group B period is, on the other hand, covered very well.

The last period of 80's rallying with group A regulations is also covered well.

For fans of rallying this film is a must.
