Recommended Posts

Morning, I am looking for advice. I am looking to buy a Subaru, Impreza 2.5 WRX STI. 

 I am curious to know if there are any issues or what I should look out for. 

The expenses an services. 

I have a focus ST 2010 model, I am looking for something more practical as mine is 3 an looking at 5dr. 

Hope someone can give me advice so I can compare the cars. Thank you

Are you buying new or used ?

If outside warranty then a good independent will be at least half the price of dealer.

Rough idea

Major service 400

Minor 100

Cambelt 350-400

It's used covered 63k on a 2008 plate. It's listed up at £13k, how many miles will it be before it needs major changes like the cambelt? 

With that many miles would it have any issues engine wise that I should look out for. 

 

Thanks

Cambelt 5 years or 100k so I'd see if they'd do it as part of the sale.

As for engine issues they suffered from Ringland issues but there was a recall for a map adjustment, but depends on how it been looked after I've seen engines go at 30k but others are still going strong well over 100k
