The 206 GTi Cup is for the Peugeot 206 GTi model only in 136 bhp engine configuration, manufactured between 1999-2006. It’s a cost-effective way to enjoy motorsport with a standard production specification hot hatch with no drivetrain modifications allowed to ensure this series is in the price bracket for new racers and experienced race hobbyists alike.
The emphasis is on driver ability, which is why the regulations are controlled for the series to ensure the cars are equal in performance. This has proved to give some very close results over the last season.
You can convert your own street car to cheaply conform to our series and the Motorsport UK regulations, or if you’d rather have one of our club build teams do the hard work for you there are a number of affordable options available.

206Gti Cup is different in that it is aimed at offering a low budget entry for newcomers. In the same way the mr2 race series did back in 2004. Strangely the costs are not that dissimilar. We have a package put together where some one can buy a turn key car ready to race for as little as £3000 ! Just need the fuel.
