I think it has better in the midrange....but you can buy a 2.0ltr, change back box, air filter and get a remap to around 270bhp.

Personal choice mate. I went for a 2.0 just because the 2.5 engines do suffer from failures....and I didn't want to pay the £500 tax a year...just couldn't convince myself to give the tax man more money.

[emoji3] Slicks to the road, can't stop yourself grinning like a loony when it hits 3.5k RPM, noisy (road/wind noise) and quite a hard ride compared to Your usual family car [emoji16] Most fun car I've driven

Very nice...not driven a Legacy. How do they drive compared to an Impreza?

Nah...they made new tax bands active from that date...and a way to incentivise the industry/public...they weren't evil enough to sting people with dirty cars already [emoji2]

If it's registered before 23rd March 2006 it'll be £285after and its err £450 or something like that

INot from my experience of a 2.0 bug GX and now have a blobI'm not saying they are the same but just not that much in it...2.0 impreza is an expensive car to run.

The only area where you'll save with the n/a is insurance (and only then if you are in your teens/early 20's)....other than that there really isn;t that much in it from my experience. I've had a 2.0ltr n/a and there isn't much in it for MPG or servicing. Service intervals are the same and cost very similar as is MPG. An Impreza na is a very expensive and quite slow 2.0ltr car. I think I was getting 35 mpg from the na and I get about 28-34 now from my 2.0 WRX depending on how I drive. My road tax for a 2.0 turbo is £285...and my insurance is £220 (although I'm an old man :D ) Are you saying it'll take you a year to save £4k but you could get £5.5k on credit now? So you'll pay interest on that too? Wouldn't it be cheaper to get a deal from your bank or get a 0% credit card for 12-18months ;) I'm only saying this as the 2.0 wrx has a 0-60 of 5.5secs and the na is what? 8.5 or 9 seconds? Huge huge difference...the na can get beaten off the lights by just about everything on the road (loads more weight for the AWD). £5.5k for a 0-60 in 9 seconds car... I'd regret it if I bought it I really would....dont want to bring you down and everyone has different priorities etc so do whats right :) but don't think a na will be hugely cheaper I made that mistake ;)

In Dashcmd you go main menu and start logging...not sure what you can use that for other than DashCmd

Yes good idea. If it's a decision between a n/a golf or focus and a n/a impreza then I'd go (and did prev go for) the impreza. Slow but very planted. Just the diff between turbo and non turbo is big[emoji4]

Very nice really like that.

I agree with you Tom...2ltr engines all the way. I know too many people who've had 2.5 engine rebuilds. You'll get a great WRX 2.0 for £4k and you'll have a smile on your chops everytime you start it up [emoji16]

Thanks [emoji4] any pics of the result would be awesome [emoji16]

Nice...easy to do? Quite fancy a change myself [emoji1]

I got one from eBay for £13....then £7 for the DashCMD app. You can configure your own dashes with any data you wish...RPM, MPG, oil temp, boost, speed, fuel rate, est BHP, gear change points etc. You can also log all the data and replay your trip. You can also read errors and reset them. I've found this very helpful...not so much the dashes...found them more of a gimick...but I'm a techie so I like to fiddle [emoji16][emoji15]

This might be a really daft question...did you change the colour from green to blue?

Welcome nice looking car. Lol I notice the Hurst wall...they seem to have that as a backdrop for all their cars [emoji1] Where are you based? I live in Surrey but work most days in Brentwood.

I'd guess it was either a loose PS belt or air in the system. Gave you tried removing the cap and turning full lock a few times? Only a guess but free to try [emoji4]

:D My theory was they wouldn't want me editing the video file as that would be seen as tampering with evidence. I could view the vids on the card and delete the rest if I wanted to and just leave the one with the "event". Doesn't bother me having loads. If I want to have a watch of a trip its quicker to copy off a smaller file...rather than wait for a single 32gb file to copy. :)

I use a 3 minute loop...I wanted less of a chance of incriminating myself if I have to use one of the vids for insurance/police :D

Lucky for you you only get a few bars of me singing too..could have been a lot worse/longer

I had this woman pull out on me today...I was trundling up the road within the 30mph limit and going up hill...ABS kicked in before I swerved as she darted out right before me. She had her hands across her face as I missed the front of her car and went past Play movie

Quote of the year so far? Pmsl

Sad to hear that Gaulson. I've had a bit of a strange week. Car had service last week...then Sunday knock sensor gave up then Tuesday Osram 200% bright bulb went along with fuse...only had the Ostam in 3-4 month so won't be using them again. First things I've had go in 7 years of scooby ownership!

It's a bit more than just a speedo...it has gear change, rpm, oil pressure etc....
