Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

This is the 4th Subaru I have had. Not one has let me down. It takes my mountain bike, rubbish to the tip and all the luggage when touring Europe. Feels safe and quite nimble when it wants to be. Buy and Audi/Volvo/BMW etc., if you want, but you will pay a premium of at least £8000 (for a similar spec), just to join a 'badge club'. A Subaru is a fantastic piece off engineering,which apart from the interior, is good (8/10) but not in the range of other cars mentioned. Also it's nice not to have too many on the road like the common Audi,BMW's etc. It's all wheel drive system is fantastic, snow, rain, oil on road etc., it just cruises through them all,no problem ,which I have done. Some say the diesel is noisy, I don't find it so and at speeds, just enjoyable and fun to drive. Adaptive cruise control, fantastic and the 'eye sight system' is a nice addition which I like and a great safety feature. A lot of car magazines give the Subaru a poor rating, and say it's expensive to run. I don't find it so, servicing costs are no dearer than other premium car manufacturers. Buy one and enjoy. Feel the difference.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

Great for space, comfort and reliability. Does exactly what is 'says on the tin'. Great car
