Hey All,
Im looking for a Subaru Impreza and Id like to know some info.
From what I know its a WRX or STI version I should be looking for.
All that matters to me is that its a 2 Litre Turbo 4 wheel drive.
The year will probably be 2000+ Im hoping to get one for 12000 euro to 15,000 euro and Ill be trading in my Alfa 147.
Also, the MPG on the Alfa is averaging 30+, which is high for a 1.6, whats the MPG on an Impreza?
I travel Dublin to Conmel and back once a week.
I get 30Mpg in the Alfa even though its mainly motorway.
I have been told that the Impreza will do 28Mpg on Motorway, considering its the same value car(ie 2 year older Impreza) my only extra cost is that extra 2Mpg which doesnt bother me. But if it would only get say 20Mpg, then my costs increase a good bit.
I spend 160 euro a month on petrol, if worst case scenario then im spending 240 a month. Is it worth it??
I would imagine that on the back roads of Tipperary that the Impreza would really come alive!
Im not to bothered if it will do 0-60 in 5 or 6 seconds if ya know what I mean.
A 2 litre turbo is more than enough for me, whether its top spec or not.
Once its a 2 litre Turbo I will be more interested in the trim, as any impreza iv looked at is very plain inside.
Also on carzone.ie there are many WRX and STI's all described a 2 litre, can I always assume that they are turbo 4WD?
Im looking at a 2000 WRX, 60,000 miles from a dealer, what should I be asking mechanically??
