Good Points

I absolutley love everything about this car. I say car because it drive's like one. The ride is actually better than my previous MY03 STi which I sold to run my rallying habit. A perfect tow car and still quick enough to have a bit of fun when the moment takes you !


Bad Points

Fuel consumption - almost as thirsty as my Sti but who cares? when your having so much fun.


General Comments

The Subaru Forester S Turbo is an absolute hoot to drive when you want to go quickly but so smooth and a pleasure to drive when the traffic slows your pace. The odd Subaru rattle but that's only to be expected, it's a Subaru.I love the moonroof, part of the Lux pack fitted to the vehicle.I also have the All Weather Pack, heated seats for those cold winters mornings.The only complaint I have is it's too quiet and doesn't sound like my STi8.I'm not a boy racer but you can't beat that boxer beat, can you?. Talking of Boy racers, I've certainly surprised a few in the last few months. It's a tad thirsty when you get enthusiastic but returns around 30 mpg on a good run. Overall a fantastic bit of kit that I would recomend to anyone.

    I take it that you wheel bearings and disc brakes have not started to fall apart yet then!
