SUBARU IMPREZA (2007-12) 5DR HATCHBACK 4WD 2.5 300 WRX STI TYPE UK

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

The SUBARU IMPREZA (2007-12) 5DR HATCHBACK 4WD 2.5 300 WRX STI TYPE UK is a rally-inspired, five-door performance hatchback with four-wheel drive and serious pace. It sits at the sporty end of the UK used-car market, and mycarcheck.com’s 1,272 checks across 397 distinct VINs provide a sizeable sample for buyers.

With five doors and hatchback practicality, it can handle errands and weekend trips, but its performance focus makes it especially appealing to driving enthusiasts rather than budget-minded commuters or new drivers. Four-wheel drive can add reassurance in poor conditions, while running costs are likely higher than those of an ordinary hatchback.

Its all-weather traction and lively character set it apart from front-wheel-drive hot hatches such as the Golf GTI and Focus ST, though it is less suited to buyers prioritising economy. mycarcheck data shows an average private-sale valuation of £6,500 and 86,000 miles; nearly five previous keepers on average make a vehicle history check worthwhile.

Buying a Subaru Impreza WRX STI? Outstanding finance, write-offs, hidden damage, clocked mileage or theft could turn a great-looking car into an expensive mistake. Enter the reg now and check before you commit.
