Re: PSA R5 differences
Sure the wheelbase is different for both cars (DS3 is shorter). Otherwise I don't know.

Re: PSA R5 differences
Are Citroen and Peugeot normally using same manufactrers for springs and shocks ?
I guess there are drivers that have tested both cars that could say something on drive-feeling on both cars.
Logically the longer wheelbase on the 208, should mean less nervous behaviour.

Fiesta

So aprox same length, and wheelbase in between the PSA twins.

Re: PSA R5 differences
I have seen the Fiesta WRC listed as 2480 mm and the Fiesta S2000 at 2489 mm.
How much can wheel base change on events due to rock impacts etc?

Re: PSA R5 differences
So how will differences feel for drivers?
Great speeds. Did you miss WRC machinery on these roads?
