Been to test drive a 2009 Subaru Legacy TD today and Iwas very impressed. Pulled like a train and did not seem like deisel at all. Liking the room in the boot for my fishing trips as well as the drive quality/comfort.
Any thoughts from the membership?

Derv is a four letter word.

commonly known as "Japanese Cortina's" every ------- got one, to go with their staffee, and joggers,and back to front hat. I know very stereo typical. :o

They've taken a leaf out of Mitsubishi's business plan and manage to make a fairly expensive car feel really cheap. Parts prices are similarly horrendous.

What are they asking, Mr Guffer?

Had a Subaru Forrester a 1999 model bought it in 2003 a 1 owner with full history, was totally reliable & servicing was very reasonable at the dealership, terrific engine had 41,000 miles when purchased , we sold it in 2012 with over 110,000 miles on the clock same clutch etc only part we had replaced was one of the self levelling rear struts was around £300, would not hesitate in having any model from the Subaru range, never ever let us down.
-
Just checked the DVLA website & the old Forester is still taxed & tested with 159,716 miles at the last MOT so pretty good I'd say..before I bought the Panda for SWMBO I had my eye on an Impreza for her but she preferred the Fiat ,damn shame.

How about a 3.2 Elite Estate? ::)

The 2.5 is killing me on mpg as it is ::)

As an aside do GM still have a stake in Subaru? I know they did have some years ago.

I'd quite like a 3ltr H6 Legacy, but I think it'd have to be LPG'ed! ::) :y

I've heard that they are quite thirsty!

I have ways fancied one too but with my current milage I cannot justify it.
One negative of getting the scooby would be saying goodbye to kitty :'(

I have a feeling a mate of mine, who had one, was getting low 20's on a commute, so yes, probably so.
-
Aren`t all Scoobies thirsty?
IIRC Impreza`s only returned low 20`s

This is the 2.0 diesel, much better on running costs than the imprezzas.

Yes, but i have a cunning plan ::)

Well i picked her up last night and the first thing i noticed were the headlights. Firk me they are good! The seats are comfy but i cant seem to get a good height for the elbows to rest on something, i shall have to continue playing with seat position. I also decided to have a little fun with the wet and the 4 wheel drive. Nice and responsive, good pickup but less feedback than i was expecting. I was happy with the 41mpg though, despite the asbo driving style ::)

I am sure you will enjoy it, personally I think they are great cars I am just waiting for my neighbour to stop driving & I will be purchasing her 55 plate Forester which she has had from new, her son is an area sales manager for Subaru & her car has only done 21,000 miles with full history she is 84 now & has developed a serious eye condition, this will replace SWMBO Panda which I don't particularly enjoy driving.
