We're not sure why the WRC is suffering these days, and the truth is it is still exciting to watch a driver drift through the forest at 100+ mph.

Thanks to the interwebs though, it is possible to take a stroll down memory lane and have a look at some of the more impressive rally cars from an era when more than two manufacturers competed for the rally crown, and a time when dominating meant you won a title here or a title there, not seven in a row.
