Silverstone Auctions are delighted to offer, the only Mini ever to win the RAC Rally, in the hands of Rauno Aaltonen.
Following its success at the 1965 RAC Rally, Tony Fall drove the Mini to victory in the Scottish Rally the following season.
‘DJB 93B’ enjoyed a retirement shortly after its win in Scotland, until 1996, when it was passed to Phil Short, World Rally Team Manager for Toyota and Mitsubishi, who commissioned a full restoration to factory works spec.
While other ex-works cars come onto the open market from time to time, many of them are likely to cost very much more and few are likely to have been prepared to the standard of authenticity to be found on this car.
This marvellous little Mini has been rebuilt as far as has been practical to the original specification in which it would have started the 1965 RAC Rally.
