@@thomasharter8161 I disagree. Ogier can't hold a candle to Loeb. In fact, when they were teammates, Ogier kinda "cheated". Loeb would give him his split times but Ogier refused.

Got a C4 in 2007 because of Loeb winning on WRC and looking good while doing it. 15 years later, I have zero regrets! I still love how it looks on the road and for a 15 year old car, it still looks as good as more modern models.

Driving with Loeb must have been crazy... I am 26 now and I remember all of his championship after championships. One of the GOATs for sure, every rally driver must have been delighted when he retired. I drove on the Val Thorens ice driving course a couple of years ago and the instructor there told me Loeb used to drive there and practice a lot. He said I just missed him with a day, then we went to the restaurant they said the same thing and I was super sad not meeting such a legend.

If the unit is from 2008 it is still powered by the old PSA XU family engine, which was used in the Xsara T4 WRCs, it was actually a 1.8 l version (XU 7, specifically a XU7JP4) raising the displacement to 2.0 l. (1,998 cm3), lengthening the cylinder stroke. It was an engine from the same family as the Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 (XU 8T). Obviously much more current, with much more advanced electronics, and with a smaller turbo with the regulation 34 mm flange. Since 2009 season onwards, it already used the most modern EW family engine that was used in the series, and which premiered with the Peugeot 206 in 1998.

It's really interesting how the XU had just long enough career to have this connection. Also to think that in between it also saw (very different) use in the high-revving F2 Kit Cars and Super Touring cars.

@@retardray5701 Totally true. In the case of the 306 Maxi, it was XU10 J4RS version, derived from the latest street versions of the XU family, which also equiped 405 T16 (XU10 J4TE version) that replaced the 1,905 cm3 XU9 that equiped the 405 Mi 16, 309 GTI16 and Citroën BX GTI 16V (XU9 J4 version). Also note that from this XU9 came the one that mounted 405 Turbo 16 of Pikes Peak and Paris-Dakar with the name of XU9T that in the most performance version of Pikes Peak yielded between 660 and 700 HP, although at more than 4,000 meters. of height of the famous ascent with lack of oxygen in the air the engines yielded much less power.

It's DNA is drawn from the XSARA & 206, both PSA's finest. 👍👍 Totally Outrageous vid, cinematography is spectacular! Many thanx. Add to: "some snakes have a higher center of gravity"......lol

Those transitions during the intro where really sweet, nice work and I hope you hit the 1m soon!

Goodonya Henry and co for yet another fabulous video, always love rallying and especially Seb . I still drive a 2002 206 GTi which I purchased after Gronholm won the WRC crown, and it’s still fun through twisty mountain roads.

Huge and early Loeb fan too like millions of others, Loved this car and what an amazing story that goes with it.. What a privilege. Had a ride with Russel Brooks in his Lotus Sunbeam once (I had one at the rime), that was amazing. Sitting alongside Loeb would have been awsome. Thank you for sharing..

Viva Citroën!!! What a machine. Doesn't hurt that Loeb is piloting this beauty. Cool viddy!!! 👏🕶️👍

would have loved to see closer views and tricks in the engine bay and under the car to see chassis parts/suspension ,these are so rare to be closely examined...I know Seb Loeb had a very tight team of mechanics that he cherished ,they would take his car apart and re-check everything even if it was not needed ,come -up with smart little tricks & parts to give him even more reliability and performance....great video..

May God.. Giving the opportunitty to drive one of the most successful and good looking WRC cars of all times and even one that Loeb himself leaded to winning several times... That's amazing! Big ol' Fan of Loeb since I was in early high school here, and a truly fan of Citroën also (I had 2 Xsaras VTS because I wanted to have at least the road version of the Car that make possible Loeb's 1st Title in the WRC :P) Amazing video, thank you and Thank you to the collectors that take care of these beauties and pieces of history of modern Rally racing :)

The other country that make performance and Light cars Is japan.
