Was just looking at some Dakar pics that moved over the wire today and noticed the Peugeot shares some similarities with our favorite 2-door SUV.

						That is cool. I like the last photo. I think getting in and out might be a bit of a challenge though.
Yeah, I don't think it would make a great DD - specially with the gull-wing doors

wow, what a mess. I guess that's the downside to carbon-fiber body panels and tubular space frame chassis - nice and light, but doesn't do well in collisions. Still - very cool

						Unfortunately the production model of this Peugeot looks nothing like the Dakar version.

From the web site:
"Because unlike most top-level competitors, Peugeot has not opted for a four-wheel-drive layout. Instead, all the power from the ridiculously mid-mounted 340bhp, V6 twin-turbodiesel engine goes to the rear wheels."
