I'd have thought it's more likely to be an "off the shelf" purchase of something from Europe. Maybe a Saab or Skoda? Hopefully it'll be something different to everyone else That does of course also raise the question of whose turn it is with the 306? That car has had plenty of owners hasn't it? Still a competitive proposition though (and it is in tip top condition - another immaculate Bardy car).

I did read (think it was MN ) that the car is something that is not in Rallycross at the moment

It'd be great to see him in a Saab he's always a crowd pleaser in them. I think he will go for something different though.

I said to him last year at the Superprix wouldn't he fancy the Saab
He said yes the Saab is nice but the Peugeot feels faster

It will feel quicker it's also a lot more nimble because of its shorter wheelbase.
Who knows what we'll see him in!

Whatever it is it's going to have to be pretty impressive if it's going to be quicker than the 306!

I have an interesting theory:
A certain 307 WRC may be for sale:
- Is from Ireland
- Is like the 306 a Peugeot (make the best out of 2?)
- Is also linked with previous partners Eklund and Bardy

Just a thought...

But its a 307cc RSC, it is entirely possible.

How about this for a theory.......

Ollie was reported as saying that the car would be unique to rallycross and was in talks with a sponsor who is currently involved in MotoGP.

Fiat sponsor the factory Yamaha MotoGP squad......

Ollie is currently sponsored by New Holland.......who are either the agricultural equipment or HGV arm of the Fiat group (not sure which)......

And a Punto or Bravo or something would certainly be a first in rallycross!

afaik Ollie is no longer sponsored by New Holland - Also, I was speaking to Ollie earlier in the year and the new car plans have been shelved, I don't think we will see anything anytime soon.
