Outback turning circle?

Featured Replies

Hi

 

New to this forum. Current car is a Volvo 940, which is RWD. It has a fantastic turning circle, and I really appreciate its manoeuvrability. On full lock the front end goes sideways. From reading round I don't think any other big estate will be the same, except maybe Merc E class.

I'm thinking about an Outback. Probably a 6 cylinder one, 2005 onwards. Any comments on how they handle in terms of steering? For instance getting round the ramps in multi stories? Parking in tight spots etc.

 

Many thanks.

I don't have any problems with mine, if that helps

Never had a problem. Sure, it wont turn as tight as a RWD car but that's down to having half shafts/CVs etc compounding the turning radii. Turns as tight as I need it to.

Mate of mines just bought one said it drives great. I'm trying to get him.on the forum so he might be able to post. But would say the two main men above is better advice with owning them for much longer. [emoji3]

I have the older model 2.5 engined Outback; and it manoeuvres a lot better than my 2004 Honda civic.
