Bit of competition in the hirecar business. Obviously targeting the European market, not just Irish customers

Does your source know if the Irish cars will have all the updates parts that Dani will have in WRC?

What car do you use?

as far as i aware the are customer spec car but with DMG you will never know the score he keeps things close,

Below is a press release from Prodrive; in it there is info about the new 1B Mini. Also they have a altered livery (more exposure for BP). Hope to see this continuing.

Great photo! Looks like Prodrive are not wearing their own uniform as opposed to MINI uniforms. Why does only Dani get a 01B? I thought that Patrik would also get one?

They'll be having a foot in each camp. Sordo with the untried new version and Sandell with the proven finisher.

BMW doesn't apparently has any interest, their media site hasn't anything on rallies since Monte Carlo...
