V4042 – Subaru Impreza
Review from Classic & Sports Car, April 2007
UK magazine
This new compact series by C&SC contributor Robson kicks off with three icons of post-WW2 rallying. Each mid-sized softback weighs in at 130 pages, features 100 pictures, and is packed with info.
You get the same foreword in each book, but beyond that each is a well-researched overview, nicely illustrated with period pictures and boxes on the characters, the traumas – and shenanigans – of homologation and more. The appendices list major wins for each model and identify all the works cars, which should settle some arguments!
The publisher says there will be 16 titles in the series, which could get pricey. Next up are Austin-Healeys and Peugeot T16.
