No more Imprezas being imported

Or Evo X's, Mitsubishi actually stopped importing before Subaru called time on the Impreza. I assume that Mitsubishi have sold the last few by now. The market has sadly moved on...

I've watched that video of Loeb testing 3 times now and I still can't believe how precise and quick he's driving. Don't think I've ever seen driving that good before. What a talent.

[Baryonyx]

I think he is up there with Walter Rohrl as one of the most talented men ever behind the wheel. It would be so much more exciting to see him driving in a proper manual car though.

The Citroen looks so much better in plain white!

What an awesome little car, clearly being driven by someone with incredible talent. Loeb deserves far more recognition than he gets, his level of skill is markedly higher than any of his rivals and at a world class level thats some achievement.

The lack of recognition seems to be a UK thing,he is worshipped on the continent.(as he is in my household)

When I was in France at the end of 2010 his face was everywhere there was a Red Bull logo, which is a fair old level of exposure, more so than I see of Button, Hamilton et al over here.

They even have his face on the tin now,

And deservedly so. He's a better driver than either of them!

Personally I feel that rally drivers are way better drivers than F1 pilots...

Well He backed off towards the end and just took the win... 1:39 up on Ogier in second
