The sort of thing your Nan can buy you for Christmas !
It's OK (ish) but don't expect too much (as already said mostly history and pics ). You can get most of the info from the net .

Question

I noticed a book from Haynes entitled:

"You and your Subaru Impreza Turbo. Buying, enjoying, maintaining, modifying."

http://www.haynes.co.uk/inc/viewbook.asp?bt=H825
(dont know how to do the clicky thing!)

Has anyone seen this book? Is it any good? Worth getting?

Unhappy

I was one of the first to rush out and buy it.....sadly no, I dont rate it. You will get much more detailed technical information and support from this forum. The Haynes book merely scrapes the surface....

I recently bought this from Halfords as I have only had a scoob for a few weeks and wanted to get some background and history to the Impreza. Lots of nice pics

Ive got a copy on my bookshelf, 80% of the book is the history of the model, there is a section on mods but its really just an overview of what sort of mods people do. The only really useful stuff is the specs of the various models. so if you want to compare the compression ratio of the UK MY96 against the MY97 STi type R go ahead and get a copy otherwise I wouldn't bother.
