Hi
Yes, I am tempted to have a go at a little light rallying with my PV. It is stock, apart from the front seats which I found very unsupportive and I installed a pair of seats from a Ford KA, which sounds sacriligeous, but can easily be reversed in the future if need be. I think that it needs the brakes beefing up a bit before any motorsport is contemplated. It is very lively, and the unservoed drums are only just man enough for the job.

There are never many for sale in this country, although you can usually find them in classic car dealerships in places like Holland and Belgium. Mine was imported back in the 80’s and was on display at a Volvo dealership in the Bournemouth area for several years. I’d had a couple of Amazons in the past and bought the PV a few years ago, from a friend down in Cheshire.
