Are you on about the 85 Manx Steve, I thought that was the only time Malcolm drove a Sport?

it was the car that crashed in Belgium; after intercom failure missing a breakpoint in the dark, ending up in a barn side ways, injuring the co-driver badly; was eventually stripped by DS motorsport and parts that survived the crash were used to rebuild a UK build body at DS; that later was used under reg no 44NMN and N-SM-210 in serveral events

correct - yes 85 manx

[Booty]

Thought so, probably the only time he ever wanted to drive one again as well. Seeing as it went home in bits, courtesy of a drystone wall in West Baldwin!! Mind you, the French Lady didn't fare too well either. If I remember Dai was the only one to finish with a respectable place.
