    Both of them look great at least, far better than I'd imagined, particularly the Skoda.

    Agree that the new Fabia looks better than feared.

    Any preliminary homologation date? Guessing end of the year?

    Meeke also tested (old) Fabia on tarmac last year cause Skoda wanted feedback.

    I see no problem with using him as long as there are multiple others, the more feedback the better and a "commercial" car should suit as many drivers as possible

    Citroen used Meeke and two inexperienced youngsters developing C3 WRC and according to Meeke didn't listen to him either.

    What baffles me is the sound. It sounds trully as a 3-cylinder but I'm quite sure it is 4-cylinder engine (the only VW three cylinder is 1.0 TSI Evo). The sound is simply weird.

    agreed, same tone as a Rally4 car, but with more grunt and bang.

    Drivers are testing and testing to get their Fiesta to work.
    On gravel some are saying that MkI is faster, and give them better feedback and feels safer.

    Once again, thank you M-Sport for giving me a flawless and competitive Fiesta Rally2.
