According to Autorally(Romania), Delecour's new "protégé" Bogdan Barbu(winner of Logan Cup)could drive a 208 R2 in ERC too

One is in Finland and Jeppe can confirm that to You

True! 1st test with 16" spikes was driven today in snowy Southern Finland. All I can say that the car is Great!

We´ll see where that leads Jaro Kinnunen in the Finnish rally championship 2013..

Superb Peugeot 208 1-2 in Monte-Carlo thanks to Lionel Baud and Arnaud Monnet

What is said in Norway is that Fiesta has the best handeling and Twingo the best engine.

will the new 208 combine these two factors and come out as the best choice?

R2 now most exiting and expanding class in Norway.

70 cars ordered at Peugeot-Sport Vélizy until today !!

I heard as well that the Fiesta R2 has the best handling and less engine power but this is normal for this car which was produced more for a single make trophy like FIA Academy. Actually the Fiesta R2 made some great SS time in WRC last season.
I suggest that the Twingo has max engine with about 195 HP.
Well, the new 208 would probably try to beat all other contenders in R2 category.
Peugeot Sport invested a lot in this car and with the current financial problems of PSA it's very important for them to make strong results.

Will there be one or two 208 R2s on entrylist of Saarema Ralli(Estonia), as there are normally two of them sold to driver/team of this country
For now, none on the pre-entrylist so far...
