Good Points

Reliability, mechanical build quality, four wheel drive = incredible traction, swallows big loads.


Bad Points

Servicing costs and don't be tempted to miss a service either. Fuel consumption. Don't break down on the continent either, you may see loads of Subarus in this country but not abroad.


General Comments

I've owned Subaru estates for over 7 years now and I'm a huge fan. They are reliable, practical, fast and well equipped if you go for a higher spec. I love the safety aspect and my wife and kids use mine mainly. They grip the road well and are solidly built.

Advice to any buyer? Always, always, always go for a full Subaru history car. All roos have quirks that the mechanics check and fix if necessary (at a price of course..) but then again they never leave you stranded. You can pick up a decent GX auto estate lux for about £4.5K on eBay with full s/h. I know because I did and it's still going strong at 150,000 miles.

Choose well and you'll not regret it. Bit thirsty but life's too short anyway.
