The Peugeot 207 S2000 in Competition
Developed to meet the demands of the World Rally Championship, the Peugeot 207 S2000 was designed as Peugeot Sport's ultimate weapon to dominate the Super 2000 category. This competition version, based on the production 207, benefited from all the technical expertise accumulated by the Sochaux manufacturer in motorsport.
The 2009 Monte-Carlo rally presented a particular challenge for this 207 S2000, with its winding roads between dry asphalt and snowy areas. Car number 9 demonstrated remarkable versatility, able to adapt to the changing conditions of the "Monte" thanks to its 2.0-litre atmospheric engine producing nearly 280 horsepower.
This 207 S2000 embodied French technical excellence in rallying, with its reinforced chassis, optimized all-wheel drive, and aerodynamics studied to offer the best compromise between top speed and cornering stability.
Peugeot and the Rally Heritage
In 2009, Peugeot could already rely on several decades of excellence in rallying. From the exploits of the 504 in the 1970s to the victories of the 206 WRC, the French lion had forged its reputation on the world's most challenging roads. The 207 S2000 was part of this prestigious lineage.
The French manufacturer had a holistic approach to motorsport, using competitions as a laboratory for technological innovation. Lessons learned from rallying directly informed the development of production models, creating this unique synergy between sporting performance and industrial know-how that characterizes the Peugeot collection.
This period also marked Peugeot's total commitment to the IRC World Championship (Intercontinental Rally Challenge), where the 207 S2000 had to prove its worth against fierce international competition, especially on mythical events like Monte-Carlo.
The Spirit of the Monte-Carlo Rally
The 2009 Monte-Carlo rally will remain in memory as one of the most spectacular editions of the decade. That year, the particularly changing weather conditions turned each stage into a true sporting lottery. The Peugeot 207 S2000 number 9 had to face the dry asphalt of coastal roads, the snow of alpine passes, and the icy patches in shaded areas.
A notable anecdote from this edition concerns the strategic tire choices. The crews had to guess the conditions they would encounter in each stage, sometimes located several dozen kilometers and hundreds of meters in altitude from the starting point. The 207 S2000 n°9 thus experienced moments of absolute grace on dry asphalt, followed by more delicate passages on the snowy sections.
This 2009 Monte-Carlo rally also symbolized technological evolution in motorsport. The S2000 cars represented the peak of
Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
