Subaru main dealer service history from new . Full book pack with two keys . Totally standard and unmodified specification . Pirelli tyres all round Outside Presented in stunning Silver this car is a testament to the previous owner as other than a few minor stone chips to the bonnet and small scuff on rear near side wheel arch there isn't much we can fault this car on. All 4 wheels have been refurbished recently and all four matching Pirelli tyres have good tread depth remaining. Inside Typical Japanese interior; simple but functional is in excellent order with some slight wear on the drivers seat bolster and the seat base bolster is also showing some signs of distortion commensurate with the mileage displayed. The rest of the black interior is excellent with the carpets and steering wheel showing little signs of wear. Mechanical The security of that wonderful low down turbo charged flat four allows these Subaru's to give the driver total confidence when pushing on and this one is no different. It fires instantly from cold with no undue smoke or rattles and drives well through all the gears. With a comprehensive history file including full Subaru service history from new, this Scooby has wanted for nothing. History A 2 owner car with its latest recorded owner purchasing the car in March 2013 our Impreza has a full Subaru dealer service history the first stamp of 13 being on 4/12/12@258 miles and the last being its 120k mile service at 107,787. Our Opinion These last of the line Impreza's look amazing value compared to some of the earlier models, and this one's impeccable maintenance history and condition looks like its covered less than half its recorded mileage. A good fun car that would be happy either as a daily driver or weekend Samurai warrior.
