    Good value for your money based on what else your money would have bought you.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    As good as an Audi or BMW I suppose, maybe a bit cheaper overall. I drive a Japanese import, but have no parts issues (It is an Outback model)

    Image

    4 out of 5 4.0

    For an estate I'ts actually pretty good. Its rear view mirror image is as good if not more impressive than the Impreza.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good quality trim, even if a little plain. Nothing warping or splitting.

  • Security and Service
