Subaru Impreza Estate 1993-
  • Economy

    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Sturdy car. Paid over the odds at a main dealer though.

    Costs

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Petrol, petrol, petrol - this is a real enthusiast car - you wont get any more than 260-300 miles out of tank, and that's careful driving.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Zero wheel spin great in wet, handles extemely well.

    Performance

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Can't fault it - quick all round.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Nothing gone wrong yet, although dealer did a lot of work prior to purchase at 45k miles - new oil sump, rear exhaust, 4 new tyres, cambelt change/service.

    I love the car for its looks, will get you attention, both good and bad, mainly bad.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Reasonably comfy, not much room in rear though.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Got nciked, then dumped 800 yards down the road. Factory fitted immobilser did the trick I suppose - needs an alarm.
