where is this rumour from ?

**Mirek** · 9th Jun 12, 15:08

208 R2 with Neuville and Breen. From what I've seen so far I think (sorry NOT) that this car is going to be the top R2 on stages. Everything just looks better than with other cars...

The peugot so far looks like an R3 car as far as speed go...they must have made some huge advancements in engine technology... the other r2s will look like nothing.

**Mirek** · 9th Jun 12, 18:07

You didn't get it. R5 is no rumor so why do You call it like that?

No, sorry, I forgot R-GT. R5 is going to be a replacement for S2000 - 4x4 1.6T Kit Car. Several cars are already under development.

yes this should replace the WRC... but first make it 53 hp and 2000 kg much cheaper and safer...

**Dug83** · 10th Jun 12, 14:16

Is the 208 r2 going to be like the Twingo Evo(190 hp) and be more powerful than the Fiesta R2(160 hp)?

I don't believe in 200+ Hp for a second. But of course You can measure whatever You want...

Is Meeke onboard the 208 team as testdriver for the R5 - would make sense!

**AndyRAC** · 11th Jun 12, 22:21

When did Meeke test it? And I notice it has Sarrazin's name on the car - does he still have a contract with PeugeotSport?? I think his drive with Toyota at Le Mans is just a one off.
