We usually associate the '86 with its Japanese heritage so I thought I'd share this video from the 1987 BTCC at Silverstone where Chris Hodgetts was battling Tiff Needell who was driving an AE92 Corolla. Anyone else in favour of bringing back the 80s?

...I am a fan of RWD,and the AE86s, its not necessary better than fwd, both types have there pluses and minuses, RWD just more fun to drive, and learn car control, takes more the drive one on the limit, compared to say a front wheel drive.

Bring on the reincarnation of the AE86 that is the FT86!.

Please bring the 80s back (whit the gas prices! and moderen octane 100 fuel).

When your bussy binging it back, Please take Groupe B back!!!!
