Yes I would accept that one, it was not listed on the website list I was using specifically as "850" but the word Volvo was (which I guess was probably the 850) in 1963.

I was referring to the Volvo 850 T5 1991 to 1996.

I had a look through the years on the web site, but can't see it listed as a WRC

Can you add the Porsche 904 Carrera GTS onto the Monte Carlo list, it nearly won in the '65 Monte

Hi Graham, there's Group B cars in both the the 1966-89 list and 1983-87 list.
Are all four events for Monte Carlo Rally entries only or is that only for the pre-66 entries?

Hi Kevan,
yes I am aware that in reality some of the cars that were homologated as Group B Rally cars actually ran in other classes as well, but for the sake of this competition I want to keep the cars separated into the 4 Events as listed.
Event 1 (pre 66) is the only event where the eligible cars have been taken from those cars listed as having entered the Monte Carlo Rally. Events 2, & 3 are from any Rally Cars in those lists. And Event 4 are those listed as "WRC" only.

Doesn't that make the 1983-87 list redundant as they will all come under the 1966-89 list too.

No as I have not listed 1983-87 Group B cars in the 1966-89 list

basically most of the Group B homologated cars were prototype models, rather than production Touring type cars which are listed in Event 3
