Scoobyghost Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Good morning guys. Bought myself a impreza turbo 2000 last weekend as a cheeky Xmas pressie. As far as I know it's completely standard except front 4 pots grooved disc and a very quiet back box. Rear arches were done just a week before I bought it. I'm absolutely over the moon with it. Also looking to get involved in the forums and maybe meet up at events if anyone can point me in the right direction it'll be much appreciated. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoobyghost Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 I will do. I've been trying to get on the forums for the past week but I couldn't get verified I had to resend it or something. All sorted now. I think I managed to add the picture from the sales listing. Not sure if it means much but I was impressed by the fact it still has a turbo heat shield and the plastic tray protecting the engine.

Scoobyghost Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 Hi guys. Thanks to all of you for the welcome. Just a quick update on the car. I did a long journey today 270 miles using £50/42 litres of Tesco 99 fuel. Did some quick maths and works out to be just short of 29mpg. How does this sound to everyone? I was (not) doing 70-80mph on the motorways and a little town driving. Imo I'm very happy and impressed by the mpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Sounds about right, for motorway driving, expect that to drop to around 20-22 round town & short journeys if you really try 32ish can be acheived it's a bit boring though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
