Last night on Speed Channel, I watched a show called Fifth Gear? or something 
like that. To my surprise, I had to do a double take because I saw footage of 
an S1 and then some woman on the show was driving a Sport Quattro (Red). I 
caught her saying that you could have bought a Sport Quattro in the UK for GBP 
25,000 and they are now available for GBP 5,000. (ya, right!) Also, some more 
footage of the UrQuattro, the Lancia Delta HF and Integrale, the Peugeot 205 
Turbo 16, the Ford Escort Cosworth RS. These were all shown so it could be seen 
how the manufactureres made these homoliginated (sp?) super cars in order to 
race the same car in a certain class. The show also mentioned how cars 
available to the public have changed since the end of homoligination (sp?).
