New Subaru Impreza: Gripping stuff
THE latest Subaru Impreza does just what it says on the Subaglu tin. It sticks to the road, as Deborah Penn discovers.
************
The name Subaru Impreza conjures up a spangly image of gold wheels, go faster extras and a racer at the wheel. But, hold on to your hats, there's a new gal in town.
The latest Impreza, launched in September, is aimed solidly at the middle market, the territory of the Ford Focus, Volkwagen Golf and Honda Civic. I was told at the garage that "it's for women and ordinary people". You get the picture. I fall into both categories so was deemed eminently suitable to test the model.
There have always been two sides to the Impreza: the rally-bred, super-quick and extravagantly bodykitted turbo models, and the often overlooked workaday naturally aspirated versions.

No jail for Plymouth man who torched his house
Butler, just before Christmas of 2006, argued with his wife kicking and pushing her before and ordering her and their five children out of the house. Butler then torched the house, lighting several mattresses on fire and refused to come out while taunting firefighters from a window in the 122 Drew Road home. He threw Christmas presents at firefighters and pushed ladders away from the home. He was eventually overcome with smoke and firefighters were able to crawl through a second story window, locate him, and carry him, unconscious, down the ladder to a waiting ambulance. Lt. Greg Kane and Firefighter Michael Morrill won awards for bravery following the harrowing incident. Josee Butler and the couple's children initially went to Florida to stay with relatives, but have since returned.
