  1. Auto 4EAT, it is a different car that I had (Fiesta ST, 1.6T)

    It's like a Boeing 747 vs a MesserschmittNice power, soft, bit too soft in corners but just had it for three days.

    I really like the tranny,  very responsive (got tired of manuals)

    What I like the most is the "sleeper" look. They may look big and clumsy but ...hold my beer.

  2. Just about to pick up a 2007 Forester Cross Sports with 30k miles (EJ205)

    Now, I think is on the original timing belt. Mileage wise is ok but how reliable would be for its age? I'm aware that usually 10 years is the norm to have it replaced, just open to more experienced opinions. 

    If let's say I'll go for a replacement what about the water pump on this mileage, and if I'll go for water pump what's your opinion re high flow pump (cast turbine)

    Any other suggestions regarding immediate maintenance? 

    Thank you.

  3. Just wait until you have to take over on a skinny road, or until you'll need to service the box.

    Just saying. 

    Oh, and forget McRae. CVT is like the saing " run with the big dogs or stay on front porch and bark".

    Good luck with it, but please come back and let us know, is it a " big dog" ?
