L22B

Hi, Looks like I might be buying a 2018+ XV within the next few months, just a few questions about maintenance/reliability before I commit. 1 - Parts availability I understand that Subaru aren't as big here as they are across the pond but I'm really struggling to find any online store selling parts for the XV (even the older gen when I was considering that). The usual sites I'd use aren't returning anything so I'm concerned I'd be forced to go through a Subaru dealer (£££) for routine stuff. Has this been the case for any of you guys? 2 - CVT transmission How's the transmission holding up, and what's the reliability like? I've had a 2 hour test drive around the Peak District and it held up amazingly (especially compared to my current 1.2 Corsa...), however, I did feel the car rubber band slightly when pulling away at slower speeds. I can't say for sure if this was happening, or if it was a sort of phantom feeling so to speak, as it was something I'd seen discussed elsewhere. My biggest fear with the CVT is should the thing need replacing. I intend to keep the vehicle until its on its last legs, but from what I've heard any issue with it would result in a total replacement due to it being a sealed unit. Again, I can't gauge a price on what this would be but I've seen uncomfortably big numbers thrown about. Any input is greatly appreciated, if I can get these last couple of questioned sorted I think its going to be a definite buy.
