PSA R5 differences

[Mirek]

I have seen the Fiesta WRC listed as 2480 mm and the Fiesta S2000 at 2489 mm.
How much can wheel base change on events due to rock impacts etc?

It is allowed to make the wheelbase +/- 1% compared to the stock model. That one has wheelbase 2489 mm. To make it smaller doesn't make sense in my opinion. I would expect them to use the upper tolerance limit.

So how will differences feel for drivers?

With same overall length of the car I would go for having as long wheelbase as possible. All the weight which is not placed between the axles negatively affects handling. Longer wheelbase also make car more stable in hi-speeds.
