Hi all, I have been lurking a little on this forum and now decided to join in. My name is Al and I live in the greater Seattle area in Washington State, USA. Originally a limey sent to work in the USA, hopping around from Houston to Los Angeles and finally Seattle area for 22 years and now for many years a retired (official old !Removed!) yank. Amongst others I have a 2003 N/A Forester which I kindly purchased from one of my kids about five years ago.The car now has around 74,000 miles on it, but does not get al lot of use currently as it does time with other cars/van and motorbikes.
