1999 Subaru Impreza RB5 review from UK and Ireland
"Try one, you won't be disappointed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
PIAA spotlights seem to have a mind of their own concerning direction. Gearchange a little notchy.
General comments?
Fantastic, especially in the wet. Watch the turbo lag, especially when accelerating out of corners. Handles like it's on rails, though can be a tad wallowey when really really pushing it. Fuel consumption a major headache. Otherwise faultless.
