Read the article here: Evo Magazine - 208 R2 Rally Car



What do you think of this?

Not a bad power increase, I'm not really sure on the front end. Or the rear. Profile is ok though.

Styling aside it looks a fantastic piece of kit as the pug+citroen sport cars always do, can't wait for the proper S2000 car, these more modern cars have always looked a bit lame till the big bodied stuff come out, same thing with the DS3R3 looks so lame especially alongside the WRC!


epic exhaust manifold :evil

    6.5 x 16" wheels for the tarmac spec. Hope the new GTI comes with that size instead of monster truck 18s, no chance. These R2s also have Ohlins dampersThumbs up

    Ugly is the new handsome at the moment. Overstyled, wannabe Audi, tryhard ugliness. Even Chris Bangle was slightly better than that. Pity when the 306, 205, 309 etc were good-looking cars.

    Diesels are great engines for workhorses. Thumbs up

    However, you just can't beat a petrol engine on song for pure satisfaction if you're a car nut. Yes

    The car is quite a nice car in the flesh, much better than the current 207. Looking forward to getting the gti in! The normal ones actually handle quite well!
