2011 WRC Cars Revealed
 
This week is the Paris Motor Show and, as part of the show, the various car manufacturers are revealing their WRC cars for 2011.

First up is the Ford Fiesta:

I think that looks stunning. The lines of the S2000 Fiesta, big arches chunky spoiler, aggressive front end. Top work Ford. :doubleup:

Road going Citroens don't really interest me, but they can certainly build a clean looking rally car, the new DS3 WRC looks very tidy (as does the accompanying model ;))

Well done Citreon. So finally - the car we've seen teased for months - the Mini WRC. A big wing and wide arches are sure to make that look good, right?...

I'm sure Prodrive have a lot of bits in their part bins: but did they have to stick all of them to the car?!

Yeah. I have to say that I really like the look of the wide arch Fiesta - in all its racing forms!

chris wrx 30-09-2010 08:22 PM

:agreed: me like.

Nice find Steve.

Is this the same spec that Graig Breen has been using in the Irish Tarmac and BRC?

Higher reving little buggers but break easy.

Stunning pics :tissue:

Fiesta looks great.
Mini is shocking, can't believe that came from prodrive. Looks more like something a spoilt 17 year old would create with daddies money.

Have to agree, looks like they've just tried to over-style it to make it look aggessive, when the other manufacturers are trying to make their cars look smoother.

But then i never expected to like the Mini WRC, i think the standard road car is ugly as hell :D Still great to have another manufacturer in the WRC tho :ok:

That Fiesta looks the nuts!

The mini looks a joke

The Citroen will win!
