After swapping hands several times, the car s current owner had the car meticulously restored back to its original 2004 Rally Japan specification by Prodrive s Legends Department in 2019. The body was stripped to its bare shell, the fuel tank, brake discs, and brake pads, were replaced, and the car was repainted by the same company that painted the car in 2004 to recreate the original livery.
Prodrive rebuilt the S10 to match the exact specification as the car Petter drove to victory in the 2004 Rally Japan, retaining his preferred suspension setup and seat and pedal box position. The attention to detail in the restoration is remarkable: even the water bottle mount is period-correct. This is the only Impreza that has been restored by Prodrive Legends so far. Silverstone Auctions will be selling Solberg s Subaru Impreza S10 on May 28 and is expected to fetch between £385,000 ($543,286) and £450,000 ($635,220).
On this day: career-defining title charge begins at Winton Repco Supercars Championship By James Pavey
The next venue of the 2021 Repco Supercars Championship has been a happy hunting ground for Mark Winterbottom.
No active driver has more wins at Winton Motor Raceway than Winterbottom, whose four victories are matched by Jamie Whincup.
Whincup and Red Bull Ampol Racing don’t have an affinity with the rural Victorian circuit; he hasn’t won there since 2012, and the team since 2017 through Shane van Gisbergen.

Winterbottom scored poles at Winton in 2008, 2009, 2011 and 2012, but had to wait until 2013 to win his first race at the circuit.
We report on some pretty interesting cars for sale here at PerformanceDrive, but this is a particularly special one for any rally-enthusiast out there.
Silverstone Auctions has recently listed Petter Solberg’s Japan WRC-winning Subaru Impreza S10 rally car, which has since been restored to exactly the same specification as the day of its 2004 Rally Japan win.
Known to the Prodrive factory as ‘PRO-WRC 04008’, it was the fourth chassis to be built by Prodrive for the 2004 season and it helped Solberg claim third place in the Rally Turkey event, and later that year helped Solberg take out the Rally Japan win.
