In 1988, Europress released Lombard RAC Rally for the Atari ST and Amiga under their Mandarin Software label. This was based on the same rally (under the earlier sponsors' names) as the later Network Q RAC Rally games.

The game prominently featured an animated driver, seen from behind moving the steering wheel, with the road seen through the car's windscreen.
