Don't touch it - it'll be as bad as the Toerag for breaking little things and giving grief. Buy her a non-WRX Impreze and keep the rocketship for yourself.

My Alhambra (1.9TDi) 2002, has so far had Badly fitted tailgate Broken cabin heater Permanently locked rear door Bits of interior trim coming unglued around the dashboard *Broken aircon *Dodgy turbo (cuts out and ECU switches to 'get you home mode' last did this at 70MPH fast lane M4) *Broken flywheel.
The flywheel problem appears to be not uncommon, as is the turbo issue and the heater. The latter wouldn't apply to a car (MPV fitment, like a Webasto), but the engine issues would. Even the dealer was shocked when Seat said they wouldn't pay for the flywheel to be fixed.
I'm 'considering my options'. Meanwhile, my advice: buy Japanese.

Spose you can always take it back if it turns out to be another duffer.

There's a 5 year old toyota yaris outside and a 20 year old 110. It's the yaris that's sitting dead awaiting drivetrain parts for more than a week and it's the vehicle that restores my belief that there isn't such a thing as a main dealer with a clue coming back from it's last service with more warning lights on than when it went in....

For £29k you are into a used/ex-demo Disco 3, I know what I'd go for!!!!!!!!!!
Good point and well made....

Dont like the look of the D3 but when we borrowed one for the day it was great to drive and now would like one !
By some very strange coincedence we nipped to the Bradford dealer today only to see a brand new Gti in white sat in the showroom! It was the basic model (no need for too many gizmos) So, I bought it there & then!!
They had only had it in for 2 days!!!
Weird or what?

Fairy nuff, but I wouldn't touch that TDI engine again with a fifteen foot pole, which was the main point.

I took one of those heaters out of an alhambra, it was smoking badly. When I took it apart it looked like it needed a glowplug and a gauze that surrounds the glowplug. New heater was £400 or so.
