I will find one eventually, but not easily done.

the nearest iI can find is this Alfa Romeo 75, which is the earlier model but very similar

Rofl Strange that an Alfa would have Mitsubishi advertising on the side. Wrench

Yes wrong photo, but I have added the Alfa Romeo 75 above which is very similar to the 155

I can find photos of exhibition runs at events like 'Goodwood' and 'Race Retro' but those are demo runs, a driver plus 'paying passenger'...not what I call Rally.

I think if the model can be made to look like a Rally Car, I am quite satisfied to include it in my Rally as it is typical of the era, and as this Event is for "Any Rally Car" I would be very surprised if it had not been entered by someone in a Rally somewhere ......

There were hill climb versions, but that shouldn't count.

I love puttering with gears

Hmm, that opens a horrible can of worms, especially as you've been so strict with eligibility for some classes.

I dont want to be the cause of controversy in this rally,I too have searched for proof that the 155 was entered in ANY rally but have had no joy so I will scrap the idea of using that shell,I am now looking for another shell I can use but the eligibility list seems to have gone from the 1st page of this thread.

I was probably hiding the list from Kevan's Eagle eyes  Tease

But I accept your honourable retreat along with mine.
The Alpha Romeo 155 now listed as Alpha Romeo 75  Bigsmile
But for certain you can have the Slot it Mercedes 190E or Nissan Skyline.... I think, but best check with Kevan
I have seen the Slot it Mercedes 190E used at live Slot car Rally events anyway.

...and the R32 Skyline, we had two at last Thurs Slot Rally

Here's just one photo I have, 1999 Tour de Course

   

Keeping it 'real' keeps it's realistic so I'm pleased with both actions taken  Thumbup Thumbup
