Question Some advice please....

Hi there folks...

I'm looking to buy my First Scoob.... and I think i've spotted a nice one... it's a 2001 Prodrive..? Looks very clean, low mileage, 1 owner since new....

However.... what costs should i expect to have on a yearly basis...??
Servicing... where's best.... how much.... how often....
MPG.... what should i expect.... et etc...

I would seriously appreciate any advice... Thanks.

It will depend on how many miles you are planning on doing in it and how heavy your right foot is.

Get one with loads of service history and from and enthusiast.

You might get more replies over here Subaru Impreza Drivers Club -> Scottish Scoobies as it can be a bit a quiet in this section.

Hi there folks....

Thanks for all the replies and pm's..... .... I have been in touch with Falkland performance centre and another garage..... and to be honest, i'm a little put off by some of the prospective costs....

I dont have a huge budget and the last thing I need is spend all of it on the car..... and have nothing left for any potential repairs..... so have opted to leave it meantime

Thanks again for your assistance
