Subaru Impreza Saloon (2005 - 2008) 2.5 WRX 4d (2007/07) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

I like speed and fun but I''ve got a boring practical streak!

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Think they like it - also may think I'm having a mid life crisis

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes, no worries. it's the best value for that speed and performance bar none. Just beware the road tax and petrol!

What are you likely to buy next?

Motorbike!

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£16,250

When did you buy the car?

June 2007

Did you get a good deal and why?

Very very good deal. They were clearing stock before the new model so got a great deal

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

What was the dealer like?

Very helpful, good to deal with.

What's it like to drive?

Very easy to drive. Steering light and responsive, brakes powerful, handles road bumps without thinking your suspension will break like some sports cars. The turbo guarantees fun, whether on bends or straights. Just watch your speed! This car makes it very easy to induce police attracting speeds without realising it.

What's it like to park?

Fine, got parking sensors but visibility is ok at back and good at front

Have you had any problems with the car?

I reversed into a post? Still crying in my milk

What's most practical about your car?

I can get two adults and three kids with child seats in there! No kidding. And then it becomes a rally driving greyhound when I'm on my own. Such good fun to drive. Also has decent enough legroom and boot

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
