From what I understand, Skoda Fabia S2000 has engine evolution and the Ford Fiesta S2000 exhaust manifold evolution.
Probably more to come...Passion will make you crazy, but is there a other way to live ? :burnout:

Also new safety features and plastic windows for Fabia (and something else). Peugeot homologated major upgrades alredy before Sanremo. Fiesta new exhaust was first used by Mikkelsen in Barum rally, so it also isn't completely new feature.

I forgot that new safety features are mandatory for all S2000 cars since January 2011 so Proton have to use them as well.

Remember also Malcom Wilson saying in an interview after a Fiesta WRC test, that they’ve found something new (could have been something with suspension) they’ve also would exploit with Fiesta S2000. He didn’t at that time want to reveal what it was.

Polymer energy absorbers in side door together with plastic windows (normal windows can't be used because door are filled and it wouldn't be possible to open them). Maybe something more.
