I had detected a few subtle mods on yours Frayz....

We are hoping to use the closest to standard cars for the Timeline. I suspect we will do the selection later this week. Hopefully that will give people enough time to fine tune their cars if necessary.

There is talk of may be Top Gear or AutoSport running a feature on the event - no doubt the Timeline will be central stage, so the better it shows off the cars' evolution......

We are pretty close to having made the selection for the Timeline on the day - aiming for 2 standard looking cars for each model year from 1993 thru to 2012

As you might have predicted, we are struggling a little for one or two early classics. Is anyone (who has already paid to go ) got a 93/94 era, relatively standard classic that they are bringing to Prodrive?

If so, would love to see a pic added to the Timeline thread

We want to get he Timeline nailed before the weekend if possible so everyone who has already submitted their car knows where they stand in good time.

Thanks in advance, Ade

The event polo shirt preview is HERE

They are navy blue Fruit of The Loom shirts with the 20th anniversary logo on the left breast & the Prodrive logo on the right sleeve.

Cost will be £16 each and we plan to have them for sale/collection on the day.

Cool Timeline Selection

Right, this has been a very tricky job to complete - simply due to the fantastic support from everyone who has submitted their car.

As you know our aim was to get a line up of 40 cars, two for each model year, in as close to factory spec as possible. This would then show us all the progression of the model over the last 20 years. As you will appreciate with an enthusiast car like the Impreza, they tend to get modified. This has made finding a totally standard looking car impossible for some years. We have made a few compromises but on the whole we have succeeded.

If your car has not been selected, then it will generally be because we were spoilt for choice. A few were passed over due to excessive visual mods - I think you know who you are

This is the list of cars....

40 264/300: Kungfujim444 61 cs400 hatch





As you can see there are still a couple of gaps still to be filled. We are working on these.

If anyone who is booked into the event has a near standard looking 93 or 94 car then please PM me the details.

Also wondering if anyone has a 2008ish WRX hatchback maybe, again, drop me a PM.

We hope to have the 1998 slot covered, but are awaiting final confirmation.


I'll post any updates in this thread leading up to the event. Any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Many thanks to all that have contacted me over tha last couple of days

The idea of the day was simply a gathering of 300 of the best imprezas and their enthusiast owners, at the place that transformed the humble Impreza from a farmer's favourite to a rally icon....to celebrate 20 years since launch in 1992.

The Timeline display will be there to show the physical evolution of the model.

There will be original brochures for virtually every model on display.

The Prodrive Heritage Centre will be open allow up close access to many classic Prodrive vehicles including N1WRC.

We will be having a raffle - more details to follow.

Mission Motorsport will be present with their race car.

Hope that gives you an idea.....

One in the timeline, two others in the area outside the Heritage Centre & possibly another one.

Not one standard MY94 car as yet!

You would not believe how hard it has been to find cars as close to standard as possible!
