You've just got to love Swapz.co.uk some times!
Just swapped my ST200 for this
Should be better than the 19MPG I got from the ST and will trade in easier against a new car I am after in the next few months.
Just needs brake pads and discs on the front, FSH and tbh I quite like it.

Cheers lads, Grant, it's 88K and 2L none turbo model, so hoping it'll do more than the 19mpg the ST did.

It's also a 51 plate, hard to believe it's only 12 months younger than the old ST.

My mates got his Leon on there atm and he got offered a swap for a Wrx blob eye in the same colour as that and a 330ci clubsport, only problem is he's being pretty fussy with what he wants lol.

19mpg... jeeeesus, you must have liked hearing the V6 growl more than I do?! I'm getting around 27mpg on average in mine.
The Scoob should do a bit better than what you're used to though, plus with the snow that's forecast, it'll be better to drive too.
Cheers,
Grant

To be fair the ST never let me down in the snow, used to plough through it.

Be good to see you mate.
Changed front brakes yesterday and it's a joy to drive now, love it already tbh as a daily motor it's great.
Quick clean today and will try and polish over weekend weather depending.

What was up with the st200 that it was such a good deal?
A non turbo bugeye, what they worth, grand or so? The wrx's seem around Ł2k
As for fuel economy.. The 4wd non turbo imprezas are well known for being poor on juice, so don't get too excited

Ive already been offered nearly as much for the wheels on this than what my ST200 was worth.
Also after nearly a week of driving I already proven its better on fuel than the ST200 as now my tank would have been empty in the ST but the Subaru has half a tank of fuel left.
