Seen another Forester.. reg dec 2005... 108k miles 12 months MOT til 9th Jan 2021... reg is YR55YLT MOT history looks good. They said its in excellent condition..BUT even though they have owned it for 5 years have no history at all, they say they lost it its a good price I think £1650 ovno I dont want to miss a good one but with no history am I risking it Its in staffordshire.. anyone around that area that could take a look for a few bottle of wine..

Quick question Whats the leg room like in a used forester ( such as below ) with say a 6 footer in the front. I have looked at a V70 as well and although it looks a big estate the leg room in the back is terrible if the front passengers are tall ? https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202001176291214

thanks I presume tho.. that the parts are more expensive than a Ford and the independent good dealers are rarer ?

Correct me if Im wrong... I had some comments made on another forum which said that it would cost me an arm and a leg if it went wrong ? Is that correct ? My car has packed up so couldn't get there as I am a carer who is luckily working locally The advert is https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201907049703108 cheers

That one sold but I really like another one I have seen 2009 Subaru Impreza 2.0 R , full dealership history, 9 months MOT (KT59UDB), 3 months warranty, 100k miles £2280 Had 2 subaru's ( over 15 years ago ) and they never missed a beat... Only doing 4k miles a year, 80% local, 20% maybe 60mile max Advice pls before it goes ?

As well as seeing a Forester I have also spotted an imprezza 2.0GX (2005) As on my other post I am a carer that only does about 4k miles a year, wants reliability and a nice car to drive with hopefully no big bills for next 12 months Does this fit the bill ? https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201910133276247 I check the MOT history but it only has the last one , no previous ones, although the advert says it has been with the family all the time and not rust etc cheers

thanks for the advice

Thanks for that here is the advert https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202001025727283

My current car has bit the dust after 3 years if faithful service ( not a subaru ) and I wanted a reliable motor as I am a carer. I only do about 4k miles a year so petrol not that important I have seen a 2008 Subaru Forester 2.0 XEn , excellent MOT history ( BK08FWS ) but very high miles 168,000 The dealer is asking £1500 Is this potentially a money put for me ? cheer

Thanks for everyone's help...I think I'll say no If anyone sees a sub £800 impreza that would fit my bill..let me know !

he certainly sounds genuine, my only concern is that he has only had it three months and says he needs the money for with his kiddie...it just always seem to strike alarm bells with me.. .and its over 4 hours away so I would have to buy on his word and not see it !

I have seen a 1998 Impreza saloon ( non turbo ), only 80k miles, mainly subaru history, currently owned my mechanic and mot tester who will sell it to me with 12 months mot for.....£650 He say there is no rust, nothing wrong with the car, gold alloys..just needs the paint freshening up so...should I or shouldnt I I am 50+ so so worry with insurance, and only 3k miles a year Thanks

thanks..i've asked quick question.. is the auto worth considering at all ?
