The Peugeot 207 S2000: a rally weapon
The Peugeot 207 S2000 was developed specifically for competition under the S2000 regulations, a technical category created to energize European and world rally championships. Launched in 2007, this competition version of the civilian 207 featured a 2.0 liter atmospheric engine delivering nearly 280 horsepower, paired with a sophisticated all-wheel drive system.
This rally car was distinguished by its reinforced tubular chassis, lightweight composite body, and specially calibrated suspensions to tackle all types of terrains. Aerodynamics were optimized with a prominent rear spoiler and specific aerodynamic appendages, elements perfectly reproduced on this miniature.
The S2000 model represented the culmination of Peugeot Sport's know-how, combining pure performance and reliability, essential qualities to shine on the winding roads of the World Rally Championship.
Peugeot in 2007: the lion's legacy
In 2007, Peugeot was undergoing a renewal period of its range with the launch of the 207, successor to the popular 206. The lion-branded company relied on its rich heritage in motorsport, bolstered by victories in rallying and endurance, to develop its new sporting weapons.
The commitment to S2000 followed the competitive tradition of Peugeot, a brand that dominated rallying in the 1980s and 1990s with its legendary 205 T16 and 206 WRC. This sporting continuity allowed the manufacturer to maintain its dynamic image while developing technologies that would benefit production models.
A memorable Turkish adventure
The Istanbul Rally 2007 marked a particularly significant chapter in the history of the World Rally Championship, representing one of the first major incursions of the WRC onto the Asian continent. This Turkish event, held in the Marmaris region, offered a unique blend of dirt tracks and winding asphalt, challenging drivers and machines in an entirely new environment.
The Peugeot 207 S2000 number 10 participated in this SWRC (Super World Rally Championship) category, a parallel competition to the WRC that allowed manufacturers to test their technologies on the international stage. This Turkish event was particularly feared for its unpredictable surface changes and capricious weather conditions, shifting from sweltering heat to sudden downpours.
The event also marked the opening of motorsport to new markets, with Turkey representing a symbolic bridge between Europe and Asia. This geopolitical dimension added a unique flavor to the event, where European teams discovered a new playground with unprecedented challenges.
The tricolor livery of this 207 S2000 reflected Peugeot's international ambition, proudly displaying the colors that would become emblematic of the French manufacturer's commitment on the global rally scene.

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.
