Peugeot 208 Type R5 hits the gravel
Peugeot unveiled the 208 Type R5 at the Paris Motor Show in September, now this new 208 based race car has successfully taken part in its first test programme before the end of 2012. The Peugeot 208 is consequently the first car built in compliance with the FIA’s latest ‘R5’ regulations to have broken cover and turned a wheel.
Bryan Bouffier: “The car felt good out of the box. I was happy with its overall balance and I was comfortable behind the wheel. It seems to be a strong basic car and I particularly liked the turbocharged engine which delivers plenty of torque. That makes it easy to use, and that’s a big asset on loose surfaces.”
