Was it the genuine thing
there is some sh!tty mock up (by CITUNING) that gets trailered about but I wouldn't expect a real WRC to be on a trailer.

Thinking about it that will be the mock up because it will have come from slough where Citroen are based. I have seen the above mock up being towed towards the M40 from slough before and at first glance it looked ok but it still has road car interior etc

It was the real deal, in red and blue, maybe it was going back to Slough, could have come off at the M4, certainly didnt look like a mock up sat alongside it for 3 or 4 minutes having a good old nose
Paul, it didnt look like the photo u posted

The rally cars do have a french plate because they are made in france like the 206.

The real Mc Coy or should that be Mcrae
Taken in Cyrpus this year, plate is 14DDM 92 and very very small.

Some great detective work
It still improved the usual drudgery of driving round the 25 everday, it still looked very very sexy especially considering its a citroen!!!
