A day I'll never forget

@MattJelonek @WRCPAST A day I'll never forget

@WRCPAST How good is this @ColMcKlein.

Tuesday November 27, 2001. Richard Burns and Robert Reid’s very secret Peugeot 206 WRC test Given the parlous state of their relationship with Subaru – and the fact they were going to the High Court to let the British justice system decide which color they would wear for the defense of their first ever world championship title – any mention of the word Peugeot was a proper no-no at the time. So, it would have been impossible to imagine them testing a Peugeot 206 WRC for the first time in mid-Wales, wouldn’t it… It happened. “It was a proper, proper secret,” said Reid. “Nobody knew. Nobody was told. There weren’t many people from the team, it was a very, very low-key thing.” Not trusting any of the stages used the previous week, Peugeot rented the Higgins’ family’s Forest Experience rally school – a place where the gate could be locked and long lenses kept well away. There was, however, one lens which was welcome. “Col was there,” said Reid, casually referring to world-renowned snapper and Burns’s bestie Colin McMaster. Having shared a house and a life in Oxfordshire with Burns, it was only natural that the one-day-old world champion would ask his mate if he fancied flying back to Wales for the day. “We took off from a back garden in the village of Broadwell,” McMaster told DirtFish. “It was a real pea-souper of a day. Burnsie had spoken to [Peugeot Sport director Corrado] Provera and had cleared it for me to take some pictures. It was clear, these were only for Richard – just in case he never drove the 206 again.” When the heli landed in Carno, the car was ready. Stripped bare. Ready. “I didn’t think so much about this at the time,” said McMaster. “But Richard and Robert both had Sparco suits on in the colors of Peugeot – minus every single logo and sponsor. “The only decals on the suits were their names and flags. It was the same with their crash helmets, Bell had provided them in the same silver and orange color scheme, but without any logos on. “And the same for the car. It was the test 206 WRC in silver, but with no livery.” The test didn’t last long, as it didn’t take long to convince Burns and Reid the court case and the associated hassle was worth it. A day when the world champions decided their immediate future. McMaster: “We were back in Broadwell in time for dinner.” Words by @DirtFishRally and fantastic pictures by Colin McMaster 👏🏻👏🏻 R.I.P Richard 🙏🏻 📷 @McKlein_Rally @OfficialWRC @Peugeot

22nd November 1995, Colin McRae became the World Rally Champion. An unforgettable moment in British Motorsport history. tinyurl.com/275ff2br

@WRCgerardquinn Think they've both made good moves at the right time. It's now or never for Kalle. And why drive a Korean wheelie bin in the 2026 Yaris Cup?

Surely Ott and Kalle will be back for 2027 as "loads of manufacturers' are interested" and will potentially need top drivers for their new 2027 regulation machinery? Am I right? #tongueincheek

Finished ⁦@OfficialWRC⁩ Rally Japan with an emotional reunion. This is the winning car from my first ever Safari Rally, way back when in 1995. Yoshio Fujimoto won in this Toyota Celica ⁦@wrcsafarirally⁩ ❤️

@jasonplato #1 Photographer? 🙏🏻

Come on peeps, let’s see who the next stars is💪🏻

@FootballFactly Good for her. She's a real star 👏

Kilmarnock have been forced to delete a new signing post and video because some sad and pathetic grown “men” thought it was cool to make comments on her skin condition on what should have been the happiest day of her life, signing her first professional contract 😢 Happiness has now been taken away from her and all trace of her signing removed from Killie’s social media pages. Let’s show Skye Stout some love from the entire football community and wish her a successful future ❤️

@Ryan_Champion Look mint mate

It’s @OfficialWRC @AcropolisRally week. Here’s a throwback to a bruising affair 25 years ago. The 2000 Acropolis saw many cars retire with three wheels on their wagon. The Greek roads are still the toughest found in the championship.

@Auto_Attic @24hoursoflemans @GettyImages Bigger & better IMO. Honestly the spectacle and atmosphere of this place is off the charts. Loving it.

@colmcklein @24hoursoflemans @GettyImages Wow, 30 years... you won't recognise the place! VERY different now....

Off to @24hoursoflemans today, working for @GettyImages. Been a few times before, however 1995 was my last time. 30 years ago it was an epic race, with a lot of rain. This cool McLaren F1 GTR won.

@4hiver @24hoursoflemans @GettyImages Young at heart David. But the body never lies. I keep trying 😉

@colmcklein @24hoursoflemans @GettyImages wow..only 30 years ago..you must be older than I thought !!!

@YigalV I bought a Porsche Cayman for fun and actual use.

@colmcklein What do you currently drive, Colin?

Future 'List of regrets'? maybe. I've owned & sold this fab four during the last 11 years: 2002 Mini Cooper S 2012 VW Golf GTi Edition 35 2005 Audi TT Quattro Sport 1989 Peugeot 205 GTi 1.9 If you had to choose a keeper, which one would it be? Surprisingly, mine's the Golf.

@4hiver Obvious choice on first glance, but that 205 was no daily driver. In fact when I did, other road users smiled more than me. All for show, not for go!

@colmcklein 205 for sentimental reasons..followed by golf..
