I think though with the advent of the forum there has been a rekindled enthusiasim for the 200 series cars and believe a rally is well in order. Perhaps if we could get a show of hands via this post paul cliffton would be persuaded to organise somthing. failling that I would be well up for organising an event.
Perhaps you or I should post up in the 200 series forum directing people to this post?
Regarding the monte carlo rally that seems like an awsome Idea I love a good road trip. I am in the process of rebuilding my 245 and it is off the road so I would be up for it as long as it's next summer or somthing. I don't think it would be asking to much to charge a small fee for plaques and camping stuff.

I was thinking of late summer next year but am open to suggestions.
Some more thoughts:
Aim to set aside 5 days for the whole thing
2 days to get there - 1 day there - 2 days back (obviously some would want to stay longer!)
Time limit to get there
Once there - BBQ - awards for:furthest distance travelled, oldest car - anything else we can think of
