Synopsis

William Woollard tests Toyota’s new four-wheel-drive Celica intended to challenge for world rally honours, but also the first car on sale in Britain that runs only on unleaded fuel. On the race track, the long standing Formula Ford is joined this year by Formula Vauxhall-Lotus, as a showcase for young talent. Tiff Needell tests cars from both formulas around the challenging Snetterton circuit in Norfolk. Plus Chris Goffey assesses the chances of Mazda’s newly-released 121 in the fierce supermini sector, and Sue Baker takes a look at the esoteric world of trials riding.
