The latest trailer for DiRT Rally 2.0 has arrived! The new video, ‘Rally Through the Ages’, shows off some of the most iconic vehicles in rally history. The Alpine Renault A110 1600 S rallying through New Zealand represents the best of the 1960s, while the Ford Escort Mk II takes centre stage in Australia to showcase what the 1970s had to offer. The Audi Sport quattro S1 E2 racing through the tarmac streets of Spain epitomises the Group B power of the 1980s, and New England provides the perfect autumnal backdrop for Colin McRae’s SUBARU Impreza 1995. The trailer also shows a first look at DiRT Rally 2.0’s stage degradation feature in action.
