Default Levorg FA20 Engine

Haven't posted on here for a while, hope everyone is doing OK.

I still own my 16 WRX STi which I will be keeping, but I'm now seriously making enquiries on importing a 2017/2018 Levorg STi. This has the FA20 engine, and I'm reading very mixed reviews on it. My intention is to run the car as a daily, probably in the region of around 7,000miles per year and keep it completely original.

I'm not really bothered about the CVT transmission, I think it will put many people off, but I'm just wondering if anybody on here has any experience with this engine and it's real world reliability?

As far as I'm aware, there is only one other in the country!
