    Eh? That's impossible from the principle of homologation.

    This is rather unusual situation but I think it happened already before. As far as I remember Focus WRC 99-02 and 03-05 were based on the same stock car but had different homologation number.

    According to these two websites Volkswagen Motorsport assured their customers that they are working hard on the solution of the steering problems. Sorry, I can't find any English source.

    old road car ?

    (Road) Fabia had "only" facelift, so it still uses same platform as before (Polo uses newer VAG platform)

    It´s clear that FiestaR5 Mk8 is all new and FabiaR5 evo is just evolution.
    But you can´t upgrade your old FabiaR5 to FabiaR5 evo spec
