The SUBARU IMPREZA (2000-07) 4DR SALOON 4WD 2.5 WRX is a compact, four-door performance saloon rather than a hatchback or SUV. In the UK used-car market it sits among enthusiast favourites: practical enough for everyday trips, but with all-wheel drive and punchy performance that give it a rally-inspired character. Mycarcheck’s 1,214 look-ups across 387 VINs show continuing interest in this WRX. Checks record an average private-sale value of £3,400, mileage of 96,000 miles and annual use of 3,000 miles. The example has had about seven previous keepers, making a history and condition check worthwhile. The 2.5-litre WRX is best suited to enthusiasts wanting all-weather grip and an engaging drive, rather than the lowest running costs. Its four-wheel-drive traction and rally-bred image set it apart from ordinary saloons and make it an alternative to rivals such as the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. The boot and four doors still help with daily use.
