Information about the car:

The 1985 Lombard RAC Rally marked a watershed moment in rallying history, as it served as the World Rally Championship debut for the revolutionary Lancia Delta S4. Starting and finishing in Nottingham, the gruelling 65-stage event covered 550 competitive miles through some of Britain's most challenging terrain, taking competitors through the Midlands into Wales, up through Yorkshire, and into the Scottish Borders across four demanding days of competition.

The rally took place in bitterly cold conditions with ice-covered stages that would test both man and machine to their absolute limits, providing the perfect proving ground for Lancia's new technological marvel.

Henri Toivonen, paired with co-driver Neil Wilson, demonstrated the S4's superiority from the outset, with the Lancia duo claiming an remarkable 41 victories from the event's 63 special stages. The Finnish driver's performance was nothing short of masterful, showcasing the car's incredible speed and his own natural talent behind the wheel.

Despite suffering a dramatic roll onto the car's roof during one of the Scottish stages, Toivonen's determination and the S4's robust construction allowed him to continue, ultimately taking the lead when his teammate Markku Alén, who had been running first, wedged his identical Delta S4 in a ditch.

The victory was particularly sweet for Toivonen, as it marked his second World Rally Championship triumph, coming five years after his first win on the same RAC Rally in 1980, and represented the moment he had long awaited to finally compete in a four-wheel-drive Group B machine.
