Rallying
At the end of 1997, GM Europe decided to cut down its involvement in touring cars, and RML went with them to the develop the Opel Astra Kit-car for the Formula 2 regulations in the World Rally Championship and several national rallying championships in Europe. In 1999, the RML Astra won titles in Germany, Norway and Sweden.
In late 2000 Opel assigned RML to design and build the Opel Corsa for the new Super 1600 category, which replaced the F2 kit-cars. The car made its competition debut in the 2002 JWRC class of the Monte Carlo Rally and its first title the following year.
