The Subaru Prodrive is not a car you see every day and it’s considered to be a bit of a South African special. Ciro De Siena has just bought one and had to send it over Franschhoek Pass, so we filmed it.
Our video guy, Ciro De Siena, has a longstanding love affair with a special South African edition of the Subaru Impreza, known as the Prodrive. Built and sold locally in 2006/07, the Prodrive has become something of a cult classic. In this video, Ciro takes his new car to a dreamy mountain pass outside Cape Town called Franschhoek Pass, for its first proper shakedown since he bought it late in 2022.
In our next video on the Prodrive, Ciro will take us through his cost of ownership and maintenance on the vehicle so far, and what some of his concerns are.
But in the meantime, enjoy some beautiful footage of what must be one of the most beautiful roads in the world, with a blue machine streaking across the landscape, and Ciro inside talking nonsense.
