Top Gear's New RPC (What is it???)

[Lordbenny]

Looks a bit like a Focus but probably not?

Hopefully its something decent for a change. Focus RS would make it more interesting!

[Emeye]

Looks a bit MPVish with the high roof-line, or is that just cos Hammond is a dwarf?

[Alfa numeric]

Toyota Auris?

[Targarama]

Possibly a new style Punto? But that wouldn't be as funny as a car from a less sporting the East...

[anonymous-user]

Possibly a Mazda 6?

[CooperD]

Dacia Sandero!

Picture 1 seems to have it with the covers off

[flakeypaul]

The car in pic 1 is a focus - which has round fog lights. The car under the cover has rectangular(ish) foggies - I did think the same as you to start with however

[Funk]

Not to mention that the new RPC is clearly red in the picture..

Just the c'eed in my opinion. Or a Hyundai i30.

[r11co]

They often use substitute cars in rehearsals when the manufacturer's press office haven't sent the official car round yet (or if they are filming it on-track at the same time), which will explain the run-of-the-mill and unpolished used Focus in the studio - probably picked at random from the staff car park.

PS. They've already officially ruled out the Dacia Sandero as the RPC. I'm going with KIA because of the hoo-ha over their warranties (although I bet Toyota were begging them to take one of their models....)

[HeavySoul]

It is a Pro'Ceed

But the Pro'Ceed has round foglamps.
