Spectators of the Eifel Rallye Festival could vote for the greatest car of the event on the basis of stars. All in all, nearly 10,000 stars were “collected” by the 160+ historic rally cars during the last few days and there was a real “shower of stars” for the winning car, the Triumph TR7 V8 of Rob de Vos/Marcel Benning taking part with start number 103 with its unique eight-cylinder sound. Second place went to the exotic Safari-style Volvo PV544 driven by Ralf Kleinemenke/Hans-Bernd Böing (#17) while third place was taken by the beautiful Lancia Stratos of Claus Aulenbacher and Andreas Mirow (#76) in the legendary Alitalia colours.
