What happens when two performance legends come together? You get, potentially the greatest car ever. Subaru UK have teamed up with Cosworth in an attempt to create the greatest Impreza ever.
Prodrive has launched their Subaru Impreza, tuned to meet the FIA rallying regulations for Group N. It’s called the N2010 and it is an alternative to a more expensive Super 2000 rally car.
Madman and rally driver Travis Pastrana was up to something unusual on New Year’s eve. It was something quite awesome as well: he jumped a rally car (A Subaru Impreza to be exact) a whopping 269 ft – a new world record. So, take a look at his awesome clip and do not try to jump your rally spec Subaru Impreza over a harbour at home.

Subaru is recalling 5,724 Impreza WRX’s due to an issue with the fuel delivery lines. They may leak, which could cause fire in the presence of an ignition source.
This recall applies to vehicles sold in South Dakota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Minnesota, Idaho, Iowa, Montana, Colorado, Wisconsin, New York, Wyoming, Michigan, Alaska, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.
The NHTSA said “During cold starts, typically under extremely cold temperatures, fuel leaks in the fuel delivery line could occur where the line connects with a rubber hose. Fuel leaks, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire.”
Customers reported a fuel odour connected to this problem, so if you own one of these and sense that odour, you may be getting this problem.
Dealers will replace the fuel line to fix the problem. If you own a 2002-2003 Impreza WRX in the mentioned areas, called your local dealer to get the fix installed.
Other states will receive a warranty extension on the fuel line to 12 years/unlimited mileage, just in case the problem occurs there. So if you are outside the mentioned states but own one of these, have the fuel line checked and get it replaced if needed.
