I've had my XT since August, used as a daily (45 miles round trip). Love it and its ability. I have actually changed my route to/from work to include more twisty B-roads rather than the 'sat-in-a-queue-doing-42mph' A-roads. Big grins every time I'm in it smile

For the first time in ages, I am truly stumped as to my 'what next' car - lottery wins aside.

I've a 53 plate xt with 79,000 miles on the clock. Cambelt and turbo replaced 7 k ago by the dealer.

It's a great car, as posted above difficult to replace. Maybe an sti !?

Was the turbo worn? Usually they last very well if given regular good quality oil.

Noticable whistle on hard acceleration , luckily I noticed it and the dealer sorted it under warranty. No quibbles. It has full history from Subaru up to 70000 around 6k between them. So I thinks it been looked after but no issues now
