Default A Rather Special Impreza Up For Auction
Exactly as the thread title says, a rather special Impreza is up for auction next month: Impreza WRC chassis #001:

http://www.classicandperformancecar....ads-to-auction







Estimated value at £175,000 - 200,000. Reckon they'd do a straight swap for an '05 STi?

Certainly a classic worth owning, maybe not for driving though, definite collectors item.

If I remember rightly the original article I read on the restoration of the car mentioned that it had been mapped to run on 99 ron fuel, so it's already the perfect daily!
