M-Sport (the people that run the Ford World Rally Team if you live under a rock) have taken one of these:

And combined it with one of these:

To create this:

It was built by the new M-Sport Special Vehicles team, who will build you something equally crazy should you so desire (and have a massive pile of cash presumably).

Does beg a question - what other random car would you stuff R5 mechanical bits into?

BOSS. That plate is ridiculous

R5 mechanicals in a reliant kitten would be fun

 

[Bluebeard]

That’s f**king epic!!!

Peugeot 1008 would be awesome to see.

Absolutely brilliant

Just seen the video on Facebook. Came in here to post it but found I’m a day late as usual [emoji23].

Just shows how space frames make pretty much anything possible.

I was at M sport when they were filming that on the track, utterly bonkers little thing 😎

I assumed it was a 6R4 when I saw it in the workshop with a cover over it, couldn't have been more wrong if I tried 😂

Seen plenty of budget R5-a-likes using a Fiesta shell with different running gear, this is Fiesta running gear with a different shell. They should call it an Otorp.

I guess they might get less viable now Evos are going up in value, though I suppose there are some other options. Some of the proto cars are getting quite advanced now, with long travel suspension like an R5 car. Shame it's mostly done abroad as MSUK are so boring.
