robin61 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Hi Guys, I've just signed up. I drive a company Peugeot at the moment and have had company cars since the 1980's. I am hoping to get early retirement within the next year or so and when I do I'll be needing a car. I'm thinking either the Legacy or Outback estates are favorite but maybe even a Forester. I don't cover high mileages and do a fair bit of door to door as Dad's taxi service so I'm thinking a petrol is a better bet and I'd like an auto. Why a Subaru ? Well I've always liked them and never had the chance as a company car. Plus they are a bit different and a bit more interesting than the more common Fords, Toyota etc and with a bit more time on my hands I'll be glad of another hobby or two. Also these seem to be a good value used buy. I'll probably go for something about 3 or so years old when the time comes. In the meantime I'd like to lurk here for a while and see what I can learn. Regards Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin61 Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 Thanks guys. The other thing I like is the reputation they seem to have for reliability. These cars seem to tick a lot of boxes for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin61 Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 welcome! sorry to hear you drive a peugeot ! Yeah it isn't very interesting but gets the family from a to b. Once I am spending my own money that will be sorted. Looking forward to handing it back really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
