I think this is right!

Colin McRae in Grizedale (the long one) in 1993 RAC Rally.

Very good Mike,I knew the answer as well but you got her first.If I remember correctly Subaru alternated between the Impreza and the legacy towards the latter end on 93.Hard luck Geezer,better look next time.What sort of work do you do for prodrive?

Kev, according to the "Impreza Perfecters" article in PC back in '96, he was the Projects Manager, although that was a good bit ago. Had a hell of a nice looking Prodrive coat as well.

Any of you guys know the "Who, What, Where, and When" of Subaru's first WRC victory?

Wasn't McRae still in a Legacy whilst the Impreza made is rallying Debut ?

I seem to remember the wild, car flingin' Scott had a few offs in the Prodrive Legacy.

The first Subaru WRC win was the previous rally in New Zealand when Colin finally missed all the scenery and actually finished.
