Default Picking up my wrx

Hi everyone, im picking up a 51 bug eye wrx with prodrive mods, dump valve and ninja exhaust. Its running about 305bhp apparantly. Just wanted to know if there is anything i need to look out for and what sort of mpg figures i am likely to get. How much does it cost to fill up and how many miles will i get for it?

Cheers

I thought as much mate, tbh im not too bothered if it has 300 or running standard power, that was just a nice benefit. Just cant wait to get it. Im going in the navy soon so this will be my toy for when im back home

Hi mate, this is what im going for Auto Trader UK - SUBARU IMPREZA 1994 cc 2.0 WRX 4WD

I'l be taking the stickers off and giving it a rotary polish. The fella said it was running 305bhp im not sure if it has more mods apart from the obvious ones.

Yeh im waiting for my date now to be a weapon engineer! cant wait

£60 to fill, anywhere from 20 to 30 mpg, and he's having a laugh about 300+ bhp, a well modded one will make 280-ish if it's really fit.

IMHO

dunx ( bug-eye STI )

P.S. Enjoy !
