Default Forrester 2.0 XT queries

Hi.

I used to run an RB5 and gat about 23 mpg on average - 14 miles each way to work. What would I get with a 53/04 plate forrester 2.0 xt?

One of the reasons I sold the rb5 ras fuel & servicing costs @ every 7,500 miles. Is a forrester also every 7,500 miles or have they moved on to 10,000 mile services with the revised shape ?

Any other advice? Its either a forrester or an A4 avant at this rate.

thanks.

Are the servicing costs about the same? I had some horrific bills for the impreza - like £650 for a 30,000 mile service. Ouch.

Insurance quote wasnt too bad. What are they like for anoying rattles. Oh, and are the stereos still lame?
