Rally Preparation Specialists Ltd. had this to say about the car: "Called the Hindustan Ambassador, the car was a standard car which was more than strong enough to keep up with some of India's arduous roads. With its history and heritage of being a strong, simple and ultra-reliable, this fabulous Morris Oxford can boast about having everything needed for an endurance rally car, and is a sound choice for any longer distance event. This classic rally car was prepared from a sound rust free body (sourced from India of course) and had a thorough and intensive build to get it to the current specification. With two trouble free long distance events now under its belt, this car has a proven record already."
