Was having a flick through the above when i saw a peice about an evo think it was the 340 had a 18000 mile service and new front brake pads, cost a snip at £1117,that alone would be enough to keep me on the subaru side of the fence.

 

That's been the snag. Even i was tempted to buy a FQ320, as it came with the 3 years free servicing, but I've read too many mag's saying the consumable's ie, tyres, brake pads/discs etc are far and away greater than the scoob's. Plus fuel of course. I can see a lot of Evo's up for sale once the free servicing run's out. Second hand buyers are of course going to be put off buy the high running/servicing cost's, thus making Evo's worth Bot-all. The only alternative availabe is the scoob. Demand will go up, thus increasing second hand value's. Great.

Pleased I bought my STi now.
