Fuel pump gave up.
General Comments:
This car has brilliant performance. I was a bit worried about the extra strain on my wallet, but it is so worth it.
The car has superb handling. The car gives amazing feedback when pushed. You can tell when the limit is, and its well out there!
It if effortless to drive at speed. I sometimes head back home late at night and your cruising at 95, never having to leave 5th gear.
I love the torque the car pushes out. It pulls from 2500 revs. It will pull hard till 6000 but dies away after that.
I do take care of my impreza. It gets an oil change every 3000 miles. Its normally only at weekends when I 'stretch its legs'. And the rumble... its music to my ears.
Modifications include
- 17inch alloys
- Forge dump Vale
- Quick Shift Gear change
- K&N Filter
- Magnex Exhaust.
- P1 Spoiler
I plan to buy a 2Dr next.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Totally agree!
Brilliant machines and handles like nothing else in the price range. I just got my first impreza and I'm over the moon with it.
Mines got 81000miles on it now and hasn't failed me once, runs like a dream, regularly serviced these cars can go forever. got a clutch change and timing belt next, expecting around 500quid for job lot. well worth it!
