The Appeal
If you want a deceptively practical car with rally-bred performance, chances are you want a Subaru. An iconic boxer engine note, all-wheel drive capability and remarkably nimble handling made the Impreza WRX the stuff of legend, and even 16 years on, there's still a huge market for them - especially when they've been built up into a real powerhouse.
This 2009 car has been packed with performance-focused upgrades, including a professionally forged engine rebuild and performance mapping that delivers a remarkable 277 bhp. It's no doubt going to garner plenty of interest at auction, and once you're behind the wheel you may well find yourself at the centre of a brand new love affair.
