Four-wheel-drive was authorized in rallying frmo 1979, but for a time no serious car manufacturer even tried to harness it to its cars. Audi was first with 4WD, but it was Peugeot that designed, developed, campaigned and won with the first truly sophisticated 4WD Group B Car – the Peugeot 205 Turbo 16. Peugeot hired Jean Todt in 1981 and set him an ambitious target: his dream car had to be running in 1983, homologated in 1984 and capable of winning World Championships by 1985. Packed with illustrations, technical details, facts, figures and successes of this innovative car, this exciting book is a must for any rally fan.
