Yea will be from 2011 I believe, though they still havnt sorted out what engines they will be using in the WRC at that point. It could be the 2.0 NA lump or a 1.6 Turbo engine that is less restricted than the current 2.0 turbo.

Its running as course car in front of the Rally Scotland field this weekend and will be entered for the Monte Carlo, IRC rally next year.
