A BIT OF THE STORY:
When the 206 was being readied for the race track, or rather, the dirt roads, a problem arose: in order to be homologated as a WRC car for the World Rally Championship, it had to have a minimum length of 4 metres. The GTI was too short, at a mere 3. 82 metres.
The French technicians did not lose heart, however, and a solution was found, by creating a new version with modified bumpers, which protruded much more than on the 206 GTI. The next step was to produce 4000 units in production configuration, the minimum amount necessary in order to qualify for the championship: a task which would allow the 206 WRC to participate in the world championship from 1999 to 2003 with drivers the likes of Gilles Panizzi, Franois Delecour, Didier Auriol, Harri Rovanpera and Richard Burns, and to carry off two driver's titles, with Marcus Gronholm in 2000 and 2002, and three consecutive constructor's titles, from 2000 to 2002.
That same year, the Peugeot 206 GT ("Grand Tourisme", without the "I"), a special, rare version, was listed on the catalogue, created for sporting purposes and now much sought after by collectors. An instant classic which has largely broken through the 20-year age threshold and is therefore rightfully listed under the youngtimer category.
