Taken from February's EVO, out today:
"There have been some fast Fords over the years, so when we tell you this is the best ever you know the Ford Racing Puma is something special. In fact it's so good you might even want to sell your Impreza"

!!!!

Cheers, Ken (not a hope in hell of selling my Imp for something with only 118 bhp per ton)

Now if they release the WRC spec 4WD Puma that they had at the Autosport show last year driven by Michelle Mouton then that might be different...

cheers

He must be talking about the old 1.6 or 1.8GL 2WD Impreza (can't remember which) my grandad used to drive.

The Racing Puma may be top dog in the hairdressers hot hatch league, but just because it costs more than a UK Turbo doesn't mean it can compete in the Premiership.

It's only tarted up Fiesta after all.

Sooooo... Sell the 4WD Turbo Impreza (which is also a practical car with four doors) and go for a Fiesta, admittedly on steroids, for slightly more money than the base UK Turbo impreza?

Excuse me, I feel that I need to sit down.

Still, if this means that the Puma is the car to TWOC, I'll agree wholeheartedly! Thieving scum: the Puma is your new target! :-)

Thumbs up

Journalistically [?] speaking the Impreza has had its day.
Can't see me swopping it for a Puma.
Though maybe they mean it would be better to walk than leave the Scooby in which case I'll get some Air Jordans ...
