    I wouldn't count on the aussie Ford Fiesta. The whole Pirtek team is up for sale at the moment. So I don't think there will be any further development of that package.

    Production model upgrade

    Both the street versions of the Citroen C3, Ford Fiesta and VW Polo will have a major change/upgrade in 09.

    So all of them are waiting for those so they can make a rally car.

    Thats one of the reasons why Citroen and Ford are not doing much that we can see for the moment. But for all we know they have their cars all worked out on their 3D computers...

    Come on... you can see in those SS where the car didn't broke into pieces that it has good speed, surely better than Hyundai or SEAT or Skoda ...

    You've convinced me. Seeing those three stage times, they are better then Skoda, Seat and Hyundai all together.

    Seriously, it's hard to compare since the SX4 only did a handfull of events, but you can't deny similarities with the teams mentioned above. However, those teams jumped into (WRC) rallying at a relative good time, whilst Suzuki isn't. Plus the competition now is much different from back then.

    Anyway, best for them to take a sabatical next year and develop the S2000 version for 2010.

    Took three not consecutive times of last rally on purpose, you can go see also other results if you want.
    I am a fan of Suzuki since I've seen them live in Montecarlo I admit it

    I get it now. It's not the car, the reason is Andersson 5x times faster than Loeb.

    Ps. Go Suzuki ! Shut these bad mouths up

    You really are a fan of lost causes aren't you!
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.
