    2 weeks of ownership update. Absolutely love the car, as pretty much everyone on here does! So much fun to drive! If I'd designed a car myself it probably wouldn't be far off this one.

    Facelift lower mpg

    Not in the UK/Europe, we only got cosmetic changes. @Lussoman 33.2mpg is the new figure based on the WLTP test cycle - the older (NEDC) cycle that gives three figures was not representative of real-world driving and manufacturers were designing their cars to perform well on the test but getting nowhere near the claimed figures on the road. No idea why Auto Trader have different figures. Toyota did make some minor tweaks for the MY16 - the last pre-facelift year - to comply with the Euro 6 emissions standard, so I wonder if it was something around that time that could have caused a change.

    Which diff oil?

    The washers do need renewing after a few refills. I just OEM oil, it gets done at service.

    Facelift lower mpg

    I'm getting 36.3 mpg pump to pump in a standard 2014 car. It went up a bit after 1800 miles up to Scotland, around and back, which was more like 43 mpg. This car is very efficient from 30-50 mph, claiming over 50 mpg most of the time, but that comes back down to mid 40s at a steady 70 mph. Range is about 300 miles to just under 400 miles for pure motorway. I'm spending £100 less per thousand miles on fuel than I did with my previous 22mpg car, and I'm quicker in the bends. No complaints here!

    Servicing query??

    In the past I used a very good independent workshop Basic service + MOT with the main service every 5 years had the car for 10 years no problem and that is the minimum you should be doing. I have no faith in my local main dealer so use an independent specialist who has many years experience with Subaru and does not work on other brands has all the correct fluids and spares. Not cheap but not as ecpencive as the main dealer.

    Servicing query??

    I'd always get a car serviced every year, especially a high performance car like this. If the Toyota costs are too much, which I think they are, why not shop around some local garages or indie Toyota specialists? It will devalue the car when you come to see it too.
