While some car companies are releasing colouring images to take people’s minds off the coronavirus outbreak, others are turning it into a competitive sport. One of those doing the latter is Mellors Elliot Motorsport (MEM), the British outfit managing Proton’s overseas rallying efforts.
The Bakewell rally team is holding a livery competition using the Proton Iriz R5 as a base. The contest is split into two categories – one for “big kids” with a solitary front three-quarter shot of the car, and the other for “little kids” using a blueprint. The latter is actually a better base for developing a livery, but we digress.
Participants are free to design whatever livery they’d want if they owned one, either by printing out the images and drawing on them or rendering them digitally. Once completed, they can post their artwork on MEM’s social media pages. The winner will receive a Proton Motorsport fleece.
Thinking about entering? You’d better hurry, as entries close March 31. Go ahead and try it, and as usual we hope that you stay safe and please, stay home.

I hope our regular troll and honda salesmen can syukur to toyota, p1/geely, mazda & others for giving us better job and huge present. I hope from today onwards he stop sabotaging and all the busuk things about toyota, p1/geely, mazda & others
He want to talk about busuk things, he can talk all the busuk things about honda. We don’t care honda that giving us horrible service and unpromising to their customers
I hope he & honda salesmen don’t come here anymore sabotaging and talking busuk things about toyota, p1/geely, mazda & others. Toyota, p1/geely, mazda & others seriously is taking care of the voters unlike honda.
This blog must be cleaner from now. So today, it is very peaceful that no regular troll and honda salesmen talk all the fake news in here
Perggh powa giler
It would be interesting to see a limited edition Iriz R5 sold by Proton, as Renault did this in the past with the Renault 5 Turbo. Renault lost some money with it (it was simply way too expensive for the masses), but it was a very successful brand campaign.
With Iriz R5, their brand campaign is successful enough to not go into losing money type offers. Proton cannot afford to lose money. If this car is further success on the racetrack, privateer groups will buy the car for this project to be self-sustained.
Nice for Proton to emulate big brother Mercedes Benz to engage their fans in colouring activities with their families.
R5 replica still using mmc 4B11 turbo engine?
The ugliest rear and c-pillar design hatchback
Hi Paultan, Why Proton Wira version Rally are not Advertisement on today. P-Wira are legend never die on this year, but that my favorite car. Wira mean Hero of Proton Wira. Sorry, low English Grammar
Wira stopped production a LONGGGG time ago. One of the rules for WRC is the participating car must be a current production model.
So siapa menang? Update please.
