Rally2 (ex-R5) News

Car looks good! Except that front bumper, which is terrible

I'm guessing the driver might have hit something, because it looks a little damaged.

I personally would place there holes for cooling the brakes. It is ideal place for it there.

The bumper looks like the same as in the showcar, but it was probably just taken out from the mould, without any further processing.

Looks from the pictures like the wheelbase is extended. Is it, or am I fooled from the widened car?

For S2000 wheelbase could have been extended from stock car by 1%. I'm not sure if it applies for R5 as well. Anyway 208 has long wheelbase already in stock version.

Depends if rules allow that.

Me neither about the R5 rules, but you´re right about the wheelbases - Peugeot got the longest:

C2 R2 2315 mm
Twingo R2 2368 mm
Fabia S2000/R2 2486 mm
Fiesta S2000/R2 2489 mm
208 R2 2538 mm
208 R5 2560 mm (from Peugeot Sport specs sheet)

Belgian - Greek Jourdan Serderidis is planning to buy a Fiesta R5 this year to do around 4 local rally's with it to learn the car. He says the car should be delivered in march..

2538 / 100 = 25,38 * 101 = 2563,38
