insane clown Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Hi all, been a while since i've been on here, sold me wrx last september, driving a diesel focus estate now!..... but i'm toying with a forester turbo s, has ppp, and 208 bhp, my99 T... just trying to weigh up the statistics, how much ££ to fill her up, how many miles to a tank, what mpg, i've had 2 scoobs and got from 19 to 33 mpg from both on average, my focus does 45mpg!... so just wanting to see how many more pennies it'll cost me cheers, mark.

scouk Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 (edited) The Forester us much the same as the impreza in terms of MPG probably looking at aroudn the 30mph mark, maybe 35.. Where normally an imprza woudl be about 25-30.. The new Diesel Foresters will return abotu 45mpg.. Wish I coudl afford one. Thought about getting a older petrol one but running costs are just too high with the Impreza as well.. Edited July 28, 2011 by ScoUK Link to comment

neill54 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Nice car. We have a forester turbo s at the mo had it for two years great car but in my opinion bits are expensive a tad more than the impreza insurance is ok group 17 so £320 a year fully comp as to the mile per tank I couldn't tell you its not my car and my wife never does long journeys so never fills it up! I've had a look and I'd say it foes snout 32 to the gallon town wise and more high 30's on the motorway! Hope this helps! Neil Link to comment
insane clown Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 cheers neil, prefer your shape actualy, yes that bit of info helped too, got to do some homework and think about it, was going to spend another 2k on getting a audi a4, so thought i'd have something a bit more fun in a scoob of some kind.

Mark CSC Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Hello I doubt you'll get more than 27mpg. 30 mpg is possible if you drive like a granny. Also the PPP is mapped for super unleaded. So to get your 208bhp you'll need to fill it with the good stuff http://www.prodrive.com/up/99MY%20Forester%20PPP.pdf Link to comment
