French Friday with Marcus Grönholm's 206 WRC

Marcus Grönholm secured 9 podiums finishes in 12 races he completed while winning the World Rally Championship in 2002 in this Peugeot 206 WRC.

The 206 WRC, winner of Autosports “Rallycar of the Year in 2002" was first raced in the WRC in the 2000 season. By the time the car was retired at the end of the 2003 season, the 206 WRC won 20 races on its way to 3 constructors championships and 2 drivers championships over 4 years.

This model of the Peugeot 206 WRC is a 1/64 casting from Majorette’s Racing Series. Like some other Majorette models, this does not have doors that open, but it does have working suspension!

I got this as part of a 3 pack set and will post the other two cars some other time.
