Possum Bourne (founder of PBMS) virtually invented the fast Subaru, long before Subaru even thought of anything like STi. If you think in terms of Toyota, you could liken him to Ove Andersson .. only far more successful as a driver.

Possum died tragically last decade, but the people from PBMS have continued to make some of the best rally cars in the world. They've been doing it for 20 years as PBMS, 30 years if you include Possum entering old Leonies in WRC events.

If you are talking Subaru, PBMS are not just another workshop, they are like royalty. From my limited contact with them, very nice guys too. You'd expect that as Possum was a true gentleman and absolute legend.
