    Subaru Impreza STI 22B Owned By Colin McRae Sells For R11 Million

    Back in the 90’s, Subaru were the one to beat in the Rally world which in part was because of the talented Colin McRae behind the wheel.

    The success saw the launch of the first Impreza WRX, or World Rally Experimental, in 1992, which Subaru followed up with the Impreza WRX STI in 1994.

    Come 1998 the most iconic model the Impreza 22B STI arrived as Subaru celebrated its hat trick of titles from 1995 to 1997.

    As you can see in the included images, this example is absolutely pristine and since it was once owned by McRae himself, it fetched £480,500 (approx. R11 million) over the weekend.

    In addition to being owned by the late rally legend, McRae’s car is one of three original prototypes. That’s why its build plaque states “000/400.” The other two prototypes were originally passed to Prodrive’s David Lapworth and to Nicky Grist, McRae’s long-time co-driver.

    While talking about Prodrive, we must note that they recently celebrated the 22B by building a modern version called the P25. Only 25 are to be built with a starting price of £460,000 which is almost as much as the original owned by McRae.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
