Default info on RB320

Hi guys Was looking to get an RB320,but was slightly concerned about the engine being a 2.5 litre. Do these share the same engine as the new hatches that everybody seems to be having trouble with, ie with them blowing up. If not how do they differ. Can any of you recomend this car cheers.

I have an RB320 and love it. I've had no problems at all. They are a 2.5 like the hatch but have not experiences the same issues. I think the hatch issues were due to the map on that version.
If you do buy one join the owners club. We have several meets during the year and their a great crowd.

Can't recommend having a look at the RB320 owners club enough! - http://www.rb320ownersclub.co.uk/

Had my RB320 from new, it's my daily runner with 40k+ miles.
It gets used VEY WELL!! However, as with every Impreza i've owned it gets a oil & filter change every 6 months/5k miles, on top of the standard service intervals!
It actually wants for nothing, no expense spared ;-)

Any questions, please ask..!
