Newbie - potential purchase

[Navrig]

Given that this sub-forum is very quiet I may not get a great range of opinions however I'll try.

I am looking at a 2021 Levorg as a replacement to our ageing CRV.  We don't need the space or the step up/fall out convenience of an SUV.

I've never owned a Subaru before but understand that they are competing with Toyota/Honda in terms of reliability.  Our CRV has been superb and has been or cheapest motoring ever.  However I don't like how it drives - far too soft and rolling.

Our 2nd car is a Seat Leon FR which has a form, sport ride.  This replaced a TTS Mk3 which was a retirement indulgence and an absolute hoot to drive.  It was never intended to be a long term keeper.

Normally we keep our cars until the die - the CRV is 11 years old and 140k miles.  So replacement is not far away.

What are they thoughst on the Levorg - driving, reliability, comfort etc?  I'd welcome opinions before I go and look at the car I have seen online.

I can't comment on a Levorg as haven't been in one but as for the dealer network and support from Subaru towards their product, my experience has been that Subaru in the UK is almost non-existent. Examples impacting me are closures recently of my two nearest dealers (Woodford and Maidstone) so there are none in Kent and only Robertsbridge in Sussex should I need them (rarely, prefer to do my own work where possible). Others experience may vary.

I've had my 2017 Levorg 1.6 GT EyeSight for over 5 years now. It's been 100% reliable, is great to drive, and very comfortable. Well worth a look.
