Subaru Impreza Estate Turbo 2000 4WD 5d (1999/T) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Supercar performance for Mondeo money.
Costs
Drinks petrol, even on a steady drive. Insurance can be horrendous.
-
On the road
Driving
Awesome driving experience, whether in a straight line or round bends/corners. Road confidence is incredible.
Performance
The Impreza Turbo turns an average driver into an expert! Good drivers turn into driving Gods!

Living with it
Reliability
Not as reliable as other Japanese cars I've owned. Neglecting the Impreza can be very costly.
Image
Everyone knows the Impreza! Either classed as the new 'boy racer' car or a rally-derived road-monster.
Comfort
Comfort is on a par with your average European family saloon.
-
Security and Service
Security
Standard manufacturer's security system does the job for insurance reasons only. A decent alarm system (or systems!) is a must.
Service
Main dealers are often lacking in parts(!), but are usually Impreza enthusiasts.
