Ok chaps, I'm looking a little later in the year to move into an S Type R. I have fancied one for a while and will look to get rid of the Impreza when I get back off holiday.
I have read up on the servicing schedule and the prices seem reasonable from the indy places. Looking at an 04/05 plate, any and all experiences good and bad please, I want to go in with all eyes open!!
Many thanks in advance,
Myles

There are very similar threads on here recently.

We have an 07 19k miles when we got it
had it a year now, best car we have owned,
exhaust mod is recommended so you can hear the V8
I recommend turn the fuel computer to off
and just enjoy the 400BHP.
the Jag Forum has a specific S type section with handy hints and tips.

Thanks for the links and the info, reading with interest. Fancy some luxury after a bargain basement interior in the impreza. Performance and economy (!) about the same too!
