    Petter solberg is to get a 2008 spec C4 for the last two rounds of 2009 spain and GB,At the moment its for two rallies Ford had been in talks with him to give him the same spec car as Hirvonen and Latvala for next season but that deal hinged on agreeing a figure of money,but id say malcom wilson could tell him feck off now

    this is a pic of the C4 test a few weeks ago and it was actually a 07 C4 he drove he tested a focus just last week but reckons the c4 is a better option he hopes the car he will have will be very close to 09 spec but the sad thing id say is he will not be let challange Loeb his job ill be to be second or third depending where Sordo is

    good news for solberg. citroens seem to suit him he was able to put up a very good fight against the top drivers this season despite the disadvantage of the oldercar. really hope he can pull out more great performances next season

    It had potential if they could have fitted it with decent suspension parts - as evidenced by Gronholm's brief outing in one.

    Prodrive had been fitting off the shelf units.
    With the new car they had decided to fit the same units, but they were going to assemble them inhouse, which was intended to resolve the issues that they had.
