2015 Subaru WRX STI pictures leaked before Detroit reveal

Pictures of the upcoming 2015 Subaru WRX STI leaked online at Zero 2 Turbo on Wednesday. The top Impreza looks tough, sporting classic gold wheels, a high wing and a rally-blue paint job.

Vauxhall heads off-road with Insignia Country Tourer

VAUXHALL'S new Insignia Country Tourer will cost from £25,349 when it arrives in the UK in January hot on the heels of the revised Insignia hatch and estate models. The Country Tourer is a soft-roader version of the Insignia Sports Tourer estate model and has an added 30mm of ground clearance, as well as front and rear underbody protection to help on rough tracks. Vauxhall has also fitted the car with extra protective covers for the wheelarches and body sides.
