‘Excitement machine’ hits Mount Gambier car market

THE Subaru WRX has been respected for its performance in Australia and around the world for more than a quarter of a century.

Used to good effect on rally circuits around the globe, the WRX has become an iconic vehicle and the premium model now offers an added bit of luxury without compromising its sporting
heritage.

Dubbed “the excitement machine” the 2018 model is certainly true to its nickname, with good handling and plenty of power when you put your foot down.

The WRX boasts 18-inch alloy rims complete with bright red brake callipers to add to the overall “excitement” of the car.

A small rear spoiler, sports mesh grille and an electric sunroof all add to the appeal.

Inside the cabin satellite navigation and blue tooth connectivity are accessible through a seven-inch touch screen, in addition to a reverse camera to make parking a breeze.

Comfort comes from an eight-way power-adjustable leather driver’s seat with red stitching and a heating function for those chilly mornings.

The five-star ANCAP safety rating provides peace of mind, in addition to rain sensing wipers and self levelling LED headlights with dusk sensing technology.

The safety technology also includes blind spot monitoring, front view monitor, high beam assist, lane change assist, rear cross traffic alert and side view monitoring.

The tried and proven 2-litre Boxer engine provides 197KW, delivered through a six-speed manual gearbox or CVT automatic.

The colour range includes the stunning “WR Blue”.

The WRX is now available at Carlin and Gazzard for those looking for comfort and style with a sporty feel.
