Subaru Forrester X

 

Subaru Forester X.
Subaru for many years has delivered a quality product even the ol brumby ute (remember those) delivered a tough reliable vehicle.

Sadly in the early days Subaru was hampered by it poor adjustment to Australian conditions , body work and trim became a casualty  but the engines were terrific. (1.8 )

Today Subaru has set itself solidly in the Australian market however its seems to just be a little off centre to the new car buying public.  Subaru's history and marketing has been one of quality which it has but with that reputation of high part and servicing costs ( which it has)

Now the buyers of SUV's are a little bit more forgiving and demand quality, usability, flexibility and reasonable pricing.  Now this is where this vehicle comes in , price around the $31000 AUD. It does offer style , comfort and the latest technology found today.

Lets compare, Rav 4, Captiva, Hyundai ix35, Kia sportage,  Nissan,  Honda and maybe Ford Escape . Its price that separates them in most cases. All are well built but hey grandpa was right when he said you get what you pay for.

The Subaru Forester X features

New boxer engine delivering more power and economy.

The economy is not the best in this class so compare with others , usually economy is not the reason you would choose a vehicle  in this style.

The torque produced here is greatly improved so for that small towing item or when loaded with all the kid gears performance  is not hampered. 

The exterior changes have been subtle. The subaru Forester X still maintains the look yet now appears to have come into this decade. Safety wise Subaru like most offer up to the minute safety features.  Subaru however will reimburse you insurance excess in the first year if stolen. I would imagine it to mean not returned or written off so check the fine print.

On safety  look carefully at the 6 airbags, ABS and remember its a All wheel drive  ideal for wet roads as we know  just a great little plus for mum and the kids.

Driving around town and this little devil is easy to drive, the truckie feel is not there and steering and parking is smooth. Parking sensors are a option.

Compare closely with Toyota, and Honda. If comparing with the others let price be your guide but truly if its price and this is just a little higher  find Grandma and borrow the difference it will be worth it in features and down the track in resale.
