Spec B 0-62 Question
Have just been on Subaru's website, to look at the suggested fuel consumption for the Spec B, to see if our car has a problem and while I was looking at the detailed Spec's I have found a discrepancy on the 0-62 time for the saloon.
On the main model page it states that the Spec B does the sprint in 6.5 sec's (one on the attractions of the car). In the detailed specification section it stated 6.9 secs.
Does anyone know which is correct.

Hi Catherine
On a run, we can get the computer to read around 26mpg. Some careful driving even got it to read 28.3 mpg (that is the overall average). What we did find when I checked the mpg by brimming the tank in the conventional way, is that it varies quite a lot. First 1000 miles = 18.52 mpg. Next 600 odd miles = 20.91 mpg. Next 300 odd miles 26.82 mpg !!!! Next 300 odd miles 20.55 mpg. None of this detracts from the fantastic drive.

Mine's averaging 26 at the min on a mix of cross country and motorway routes.
12,000 on the clock and no real issues although a few plastics are starting to creak a little.
