Has anyone seen one of these competing yet? How do they look/go compared to the other R2's?

From the brief specs I have seen on the internet they seem very comparable to the Twingo.

Has anyone got a link to a price list and spec please?

I've seen Benoît Vaillant as 0 car in Rallye de Neufchatel en Braye.
The car has a horrible sound ... it's not nice to hear. It's not spectacular to see too, but Vaillant wasn't pushing I suppose.

Here is 2HP Compétition informations (the official dealer for Opel Motorsport in France)

These cars are cup ones and not full R2 (from the output I would say the engine is basically a stock one). Do You know if Opel plans full R2?

Yes, at least they were included in the original plans:
