Toyota announces WRC plans

[Mirek]

Ah, ok. I understood the question in a wrong way. You are right that homologation of Yaris RRC is not possible although RRC are still eligible to take part in WRC2.

I'm not so sure about that.
Homologation for S2000 1.6 T was prohibited or stayed as an option, from January 2014?
The last to be approved was Polo S2000 1.6 T.

Is that the South African Polo S2000 or a version of the WRC car that was homologated by default i.e. same as the DS3 RRC, Fiesta RRC and Mini SPC?

[Mirek]

South African Polo S2000 is regionally homologated car. Polo RRC homologated as a part of WRC homologation has never been used in any rally. It has been tested though. Some photos were posted here on the forum but it was a long time a go.

The RRC version (S2000 1.6 T) of Polo is homologated since January 2013.
Never competed but it is homologated.

What happens to the works VW Polo WRC cars when they get old? Do they get parked next to the old Dakar Touaregs in the museum?

Really looking forward to this announcement. Hopefully it's a positive one for the WRC
