Actually this car started life as a Group B rally car - the running gear of the 205 Group B car was dropped into the 405 body (for marketing purposes) and the car was used for Pikes Peak as well as the Dakar Rally.
When Group B was banned at the end of 1986, the manufacturers found other events that the cars could be used for, notably Pikes Peak. Audi also raced the Group B Quattro S1 at the Peak, and won in '87 with Walter Rorhl. The Pug won in '88 and '89.
