new citroen livery

Such a disappointment. Much preferred last year's black livery.

1) Msport
2) Hyundai
3) shared by VW and Citroën/PH sport/Abu Dhabi WRT.

If privateers are to be counted, Bouffier wins by a mile as usual... Kubica has fallen far down the order with his horrible looking livery.

I wasn't a great fan of last year's Citroën livery but I really like this one. I prefer the emphasis being more on Total with all that red, rather than Abu Dhabi.

I like the Citroen, I think the design blends the sponsors nicely and has a distinct character. I also like the Hyundai, to me it seems they are going for a high-tech/futuristic/youngster look, it's different to traditional rally car designs but it's a good design. M-Sport is a nice and clean. VW i'm not sure, can't tell from just that frontal photo, but I hope it has more white so the Ford and VW don't look too similar if they are both mainly blue.

It's the same look as last year, with a bit of white added to the front.

It is still my favourite

I love the new Citroën livery. Like Hyundai as well. VW is ok. M-Sport livery is not my thing

Honestly debating the merits of various liveries is a bit pointless. It's so subjective - as the comments above indicate.

For me I just like to see the liveries changing, at least every couple of years, to keep it fresh. Nice to have something different to watch and photograph.

The results and form list might be fairly static, so anything else that can change is good news to me.
