Title: Back to a Subaru.
Post by: 2boxerdogs on 04 May 2016, 13:08:53

Clearing some garden rubbish today for my elderly neighbour , told me that she has been advised to cease driving due to her failing eyesight, she has an 05 plate Subaru Forester which she has had from new it has full history & has covered 23,000 miles only, the dealership has offered her £2300 for it.She asked me if I would like it as we had a Forester a few years back, well compared to the Panda SWMBO has at present It's a no brainer ! So I've treated her to a new set of wheels . It's an auto as well which I prefer.

Does it share the 2 litre turbo engine with the Impreza?

Same engine no turbo, they do a turbo version but I  am told it is a real guzzler.

There's also a 3.0. Which is worse.
