more importantly, what to listen for, knocking is a big problem as many lads will digress on here, take it up over 3k and listen for it as a friend of mine bought 1 and let the vendor drive, was knocking at 4200rpm after he'd parted with 3200 quid on way home

Gazza - have a read of this the scoobypedia which is tabbed at the top of the page is full of info which is well worth reading if you are new to turbo cars and in particular the Impreza.

Well here's your first pointer, get a WRX there better and faster than UK cars
