Summary
What does this car say about you?
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Would you buy this car again and why?
No - it has been very unreliable. Unfortunately I can't afford the time or costs to keep having this car repaired. I don't thinks Subaru attitude that its acceptable for a car of a few years old to need major repairs is acceptable. I bought this car based on Subarus reputation for reliability. THis car and Subarus attitude have been very disappointing.
What are you likely to buy next?
Honda CRV.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
This is the most unreliable car I have ever owned. At just over two and a half years old I had to replace the turbo at a cost of 2k£. Unfortunately I was 1k miles over warranty so had to fight to get Subaru to make a partly reduced good will offer. Now the car is all of three and a half years old and it has had to have glow plugs replaced at £450. Subaru say that I am just unlucky!
