Peugeot Sport will exhibit the 207 Rallye, 207 Spider THP, 908 HDi FAP and the 207 S2000 at the 2009 Autosport International show, set to run from the 8th to the 11th of January 2009 at the NEC Birmingham. The 207 S2000 will be styled with the same livery as the one that Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle will be driving in the 2009 IRC rally challenge.

We’ve seen privateer teams in Malaysia use the Honda Integra for the longest time. There’s even a one-make Integra cup race. It would be fun to see a 207 Spider THP one-make race. Instead of high revving VTEC sounds, we’d hear a dozen or so turbo turbines spinning away and blaring their wastegates on the track.

    S2000 version is the only looks nice, the rest, sorry man the word “ugly” doesn’t seem accurately describe it unless you add “like hell”.

    These style artists make big mistake if they think car looks good by simply giving an aggressive look to the headlight.

    By the way, more and more cars adopt this style for the headlight don’t they. BMW 3 and 5, Honda Civic and City, Citroen etc. Toyota does not, because the VIOS has becomes thesaurus to dugong.

    Mazda? Not only the headlight, the new 3 also shares a smiley face like this too.

    I think the next gen Peugeot sedan (possibly named 408), would have new corporate grille styling inspired by the RC Hymotion 4 concept.

    More toned down than the current teeth brace-styled grille.
