Lol not really but I did meet her once in Aberystwyth lol after a rally in the mid Wales stages and there was a prize giving party,dance,booze up . My actual buddy jonesy reckoned he was snogging with her tongues and everything...but I think he only shook hands . Anyway there’s a great documentary on sky “the queen of speed” it’s a good watch . Here’s a little vid I found on YouTube and she’s still got it

Didn’t she drive one of the Quattros?

I thought that was the case Hugh. There were some very good drivers in that era for sure .

Saw those on what I think was the last time through Clumber Park not long before the RAC Rally died.

Walter Rohl was bang on when he said that she will be remembered long after he has popped his clogs. He came across as an ar$e back in the day, but an ok chap now that he's not competing.

She came across very well. She has aged very well ;) . I loved her shed :) .
 
Always fancied Michelle Mouton. A great driver from arguably the greatest period of rallying. I always thought that the sound of a Cosworth BDA at full chat was special - but then came the 5 cylinder Audi.....

A 5 cylinder engine does have a sweet sound when it’s working hard.
