Intended to take part in the regularity rallies of the time (including a class victory at the Monte Carlo Historique in 2001), it was regularly improved and maintained and was totally reliable. It has never been involved in an accident, but bears some small traces of its adventurous life. From 2005 it took part in 'tourist' rallies in the south of France and neighbouring countries. It is therefore not a 'competition' car (this was not the original aim) but it runs well and will continue to delight its new owner for tens of thousands of kilometres.
