    Love the programme and how ludicrously simple they make everything seem. Would probably mortgage the house to get any one of their cars. Great fun.

    I caught the end of an episode lately where they were working on a relatively new Impreza, as far as I know it was in the UK though. Great show.

    Thanks for that. I love that show - it's the only real petrolhead show left now that Top Gear is more about being an entertainment programme that just so happens to have cars in it, although Sunday's Episode was the best of the new series, easily!

    Stunning car. I really liked it. Looks like the mileage was not as genuine as they thought if the for sale ad is anything to go by. Listed for sale with 110k kilometres.
