I love the turbo whoosh under braking on the Fabia

If I were Peugeot I would be worried that the Skoda already looks/sounds more refined in terms of power train than the 208, 8 months ahead of homologation...

Nice to hear some proper turbo sounds after the boredom of the Fiesta.

The March 2015 is more possible as homologation date for Fabia R5. Raimund Baumschlager said after Janner :"Hopefully we will receive the Fabia R5 next April".

To date, Peugeot Sport has received 22 firm orders for the 208 T16: eight in Italy, five in France, three in the Czech Republic, two in Germany and one in Brazil, Denmark, Latvia and Belgium.

I hope they can deliver these cars sooner than later. M-Sport has pretty much filled the market and many entry lists of many events.. and all available Fiestas are sold in days (if you look advertisments). I hope to see even nicer WRC2 and ERC lists in near future.

Pluto, does 3 orders from CZ mean 3 different customers?

It looks like homologation of Peugeot 208 T16 by FIA was refused. Andreucci will start in Ciocco with national homologation.
