Best driver's car - And the winner is...


Impreza STi

The standard STi costs £25,995, while the winged Prodrive Style version is £27,495 – either way, you don’t have to pay supercar money for this car. Power is up to 262bhp, which is enough to endow the STi with real low-down punch. Combined with the new six-speed ’box, its pace is a long, long way past adequate. But the change in the handling is the real revelation. Forget the Turbo’s body roll and understeer, a new front diff and reworked suspension make this one of the best 4WD cars we’ve driven on mountain roads. It’s also civilised on long motorway hauls, and if we had any doubts, they were that it might be a little dull and predictable on the limit. But, it ain’t. After a little initial understeer, the STi gives way to full-throttle, sideways activity – especially in the wet. It’s perfectly easy to live with, staggeringly good and well priced. We have no problems with this Impreza making the grade in 2002.

"Power is up to 262bhp, which is enough to endow the STi with real low-down punch."

What a complete load of ****. Complete nonsense. Not slagging off the car - not driven it. What has low down punch got to do with top end power? - possibly an inverse relation when a PPP car would have more low down punch and less top end power both because of a smaller turbo. Very clever these Top Gear folk :rolleyes:
