I haven't got an ultimate - I'd just take one of every version and edition that's been made please. Completely standard as they left the factory

Depends on what it's intention is....

Love the front end of that, looks awesome!

I'm not really sure I have an ultimate spec, as Tim says it depends what it's purpose is. Also agree about Clive's P1, brilliant car.

My only real wish would be that they produced each body shape in a two door version. Better still a 22B equivalent for each model. Would love a wide arch two door blob eye!

For fun I'd quite fancy a rally spec Impreza or a Dakar Foz.

I was looking on the Prodrive site earlier and spotted a for sale section. Some nice stuff there.

Very nearly went with that choice myself Dave. They threw the older cars around more, it was more impressive to watch.

But the early 2000's was when I was enjoying rallying the most, camped out up a mountain in Wales for 3 days every year cheering on McRae, Burns and then Solberg a couple of years later. Its what made the brand for me and the reason I ended up buying one

In a dream world, also with the WRC Bug.

If I could afford it, a 22b

The real world, I'm building it.

mmmm... I think for me a totally standard RB320 is still high on the list. A MK2 Litchfield type 25 in WR Blue, or an RA-R. There appears to be a bit of a hawkeye theme going on there. What does that tell you!.
