There is a specific spec yes. It is detailed on Peugeot Sport France website if you look that up. There are group N, group A and RC spec cars. They are all based on price so your budget will determine what you can build.
I wouldnt advise doing the way you are as you will still pay around £30,000 to build a 206 cup in bits from Pug Sport.
You would be far better to buy an alrady bult cup car which are selling from around £5500 to £8000

Ah ok. Yeh well I would just follow what the cup cars do as the RC or 180 parts are a lot more expensive to buy. The bodywork is very much standard unless you decide to go for a full group A bodykit. This is a big step as all the subframe, bottom arms etc need to be modified in order to accomidate it which is a bit much for road rallying.
The cup cars modification usually include:
doorcards, suspension, sumpguard, all the engine mods which you wont do if you have a 180, exhaust, rear beam solid mounts.
Try www.specialtuninguk.co.uk/ for parts in the UK and an idea of prices but I find Peugeot sport France is cheaper.

never order parts from specialtuning, they are robbers. order them directly from pug sport are at least 30% cheaper. delivery are spot on as well.

price on specialtuning are all ex. VAT
you probably need to scroll through all the 206 tabs on the pugsport website as the website is not very organized

Not so sure that is always true seabook as some parts have a marginal difference and then when you add french tax and postage there is not much in it.
There is a guy on ebay sells carbon door cards for around £120 a pair. Seems like a better deal than £130 a side!

Peugeot France does have all the 206 parts but there is an easy way to get into it. Will post it later on if someone else doesnt post the link up.

all of the stuff (wishbone, wheel bolts, torsion bar) i ordered in the past from pugsport are at least 30% cheaper than specialtuning (if not more). some parts might have smaller difference but i doubt specialtuning will be cheaper anyway.
french tax is lower than UK's vat
and normally pugsport don't charge much on delivery too (no ideal about large items such as bodykit etc...)

I made my own ones and then cut the tops off a standard doorcard and painted them black. Look just as good as any of the Pug Sport ones and cost a lot less.
I do think they are a must
