The BMW 318ti Compact Rally Car

Remember the E30 M3 Prodrive Group A Rally Car? Remember the beautiful sideways we used to see on Lebanese tarmac thanks to the late great Adel Metni (RIP) and Billy Karam? well here’s what replaced it in European Rally Championships.

It’s the BMW E36 318ti COMPACT F2000. 4 cylinders, 2000 cc, 280 Horsepower, High Revving engine (up to 9200 RPM), sequential gearbox, and the best thing probably, it’s REAR WHEEL DRIVE 🙂

Don’t we need more categories in Lebanese Rallying just like in France and Germany?
Drivers: Stephane Poudrel & Nicolas Dufour.
