Default Servicing!

As a future Impreza owner what are the servicing costs like, as far as I know its every 10'000 for an STI, so for me its once a year.

Some cars I have looked at have only 6-8kmiles, so a 10'000mile service will be due soon, what would the cost be like?

Many Thanks
Daz.

If you can't afford to run it, don't buy it. Forget service costs, it's the fuel costs that you should be conserned about. A couple hundred quid for servicing against thousand on petrol.

I paid £367 for a 30k service at main dealer. saved £60 by supplying my own oil. An oil service cost me £133 again I supplied the oil. There are specialists near you if you want to steer clear of main dealers

Cheers Catmeat, all sounds ok, paid more at the Vauxhall garage for my current car. All about the same these days labour cost wise anyway.
