The V6 has been rallied on lower level rallies - I saw one on a rally near Wigan, it spent most of the event facing backwards after spinning :S

It wouldn't be allowed to contest the British Rally Championship (like the other two are) as it's not homologated for International events and it's engine is too big for the class structure anyway.
