Hi Nico,

Nice pictures!I would love to drive down there someday and watch that rally.Until then Boucles des Bastogne(this weekend) and Köln-Ahrweiler in the fall will have to do.
Do you have any idea what wheels are on that yellow 1302?They look a bit like Ansens..

Cheers,Arnoud

You are welcome here and it's a great rally to watch (about 300 classic cars!)

I think the wheels on this 1302 are ATS

This beetle is driven by Ville Silvasti, who drives also 911 rsr and 356 B in other rallys. Engine in this beetle is in FIA-homologation 1.6 with 48 IDA:s, drysump etc, gearbox is modified with racegearset + ZF Limited split differential.  Nice car and good driver

Awesome, thank you for the infos! These FIA 1.6 engines are really interesting. I think tough it should have kept the stock (but heavily modified) muffler to be completely FIA-homologated? Note that in this rally, cars do not have to have a FIA passport.

I'll post pictures of the other VWs later this weekend.
