The next one up with THP155 has a turbo.

Congrats to Steve Røkland on class win on Pirelli Rally. This even if he drove many ss with a very squized exhaust system that had to be replaced with a spare from M-Sport HQ.

Been out watching Rally Sørland this weekend.
Wow I am impressed by the debut of the Fiesta R1 driven by Anders Kjær.

Number 16 after day 1, up to 14 during first stages day 2, ending up with an splendid 19th at the end.

Quentin Gilbert tested the DS3 R1

Interesting that Gilbert was chosen by Citroën as test driver: it shows how the make is confident in him...maybe the "next Ogier" ???

[Sulland]

Is there a price out for the DS3 R1 ?

What is the price for used Twingos in France (biggest market) and other places ?

His name is not "Seb"!!!

Impressed by the R1 on gravel. With a good driver it went like a train on gravel, and came 19th total.

The car is made for rental by people that just want to test rally, to check if they like it before buying a car. Smart system!!

Wondering about the strength btw the ford and the renault R1s, but the ford looked good And easy to drive I must say.
