A UK-based Subaru enthusiast writes an article about the history of UK models and you think it's a shame?

A good article but it would have been nice to include more feedback about how the models performed against their rivals and had some testimonials from owners.

Ok maybe I should re phrase that. Not a shame but would have been nice to see some JDM stuff as well, covering all special editions.
