Since the London to Moscow 1993 and London to Beijing 1996 rallies in 2012 the car received a full body off, engine out respray in to remove the stone chips from the gruelling trails (thankfully the underside was protected by massive aluminium plates, now removed). The car has covered a little under 6, 000 miles since and remains in good condition.
Mechanically the car is very up together with just 15, 000 miles since Cadburys international footed a £25, 000 bill for a high end engine rebuild and preparation.
