This car has been owned by Phillipe Wambergue (former BX 4TC EVO Citroen Factory driver) since many years and went under restoration which was finished early 2009. It once participated in the WRC Acropolis rally 1986 as “17” with driver P. Wambergue and navigator J.B.Vieu. For that reason they brought back the number “17” and stickers of the Acropolis rallye on the car. The car was sold to a Group B collector Teo Marin in Spain. Photos beneath show it in Greece 1986 and during the Eifel classic rallye 2012. |

F. Chauche used the car during Rallyes Provance as Nr “2”, Rallye de la Decoverte??? as Nr “8” (see photo), and finally Rallye de Charente as Nr “14”. This was 1 of the two cars which was lateron used by Patrick Pivert during the French Rallycross championship. During one of the races (Saint Junien circuit) it crashed and was fully destroyed. In a long right fast part upon a small hill, he lost control and the car rolled 3 to 5 times and was totalloss. Gladly Patrick Pivert was ok. He took the 2nd shell and drove this second car for the rest of the season. Parts of this crashed EVO were used to restore another EVO (nr 16). Photo right shows the car driven by Pivert. |
