SUBARU FORESTER Used Car Review

Subaru joined the 'soft-roader' SUV club in 1997 when it used the platform of its famous Impreza small car as the basis for the Forester. The model has become the Japanese brand's most popular model in Australia, as well as being one of the country's favourite SUVs. Currently into its fourth generation, an all-new Forester has been unveiled and is due in late 2018.

Pros

Cons

  • Fantastic all-round visibility
  • Clever Eyesight safety tech on more recent models
  • Ride comfort consistently good across generations
  • Permanent all-wheel drive (most rivals use a part-time AWD system)
  • Servicing costs higher than average and limited capped-price program
  • Full-size spare reduces boot space
  • Cabin design lacks flair and premium feel
  • For light-duty off-roading only
This is general information and should not be relied on as purchasing advice.

Second car for running errands. Hence, super low kilometers. It's been a very good car for the family, but it's time for a change due to our growing family. Regular service maintained. Front bumper has a minor depression at the bottom left hand side. Windshield has a 6" hairline crack from a chip on the driver's side, but it's passed registration and hasn't been an issue. Otherwise, it's in very good condition for it's age.

There’s also a crack on the front windscreen with both ends being on the edge of the screen. It does not obstruct view and has also not spread since it first occurre

Selling our beloved 2006 Subaru Forester to downsize to a smaller car. A major issue is the head gasket, which will need repairing, but the car still drives well. There is also a coolant leak, so the coolant needs topping up every few days. Otherwise the car has been serviced regularly, with the next service due in May 2024. It is also registered until May 25 2024, but doesn’t come with RWC. Pros: - roof rack worth $750 - extendible awning - only 175,000km on odometer - still a daily driver,
