gus the bus Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 Hi folks I might be on the lookout for a different 4x4 and thought about a Forester....would be an older one maybe 1999-2002 Is there any types I should be going for?....or what to look for when buying one?....auto or manual? Cheers Oops and it would be to replace my Mitsubishi Shogun lol Cathy, Manual S Turbo is the one to go for . Same things to look out for on an impreza tbh ie FSH etc.... but deffo check if it has self levelling rear suspension and if it has make sure the units have been replaced or are in good nick as they cost a fortune to replace If its got standard suspension set-up all the better Also, check its not been ragged by some auld farmer and more dents than my bank account on the underneath. Anything else just ask

Midnight21 Posted June 15, 2010 Author Posted June 15, 2010 cathy,i have one for sale, if you look in the for sale section. alan Thanks will think about that one but not too sure about an auto especially with the deep snow I have to deal with in the winter

Guest Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 Thanks will think about that one but not too sure about an auto especially with the deep snow I have to deal with in the winter in the snow there this winter the car ran a dream, also has a snow setting, so more traction. with it being an import it does not have the self leveling suspension.
StrikE Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 MMMMMMMM soon to be Cathy 3 scoobs????? Kenny Mmm Jon & Debbs have bet Cathy too that Kenny, although 2 of the scoobies Jon broke, technically
Midnight21 Posted June 15, 2010 Author Posted June 15, 2010 Mmm Jon & Debbs have bet Cathy too that Kenny, although 2 of the scoobies Jon broke, technically Aye but they have 3 between 2 ... I would have 3 to myself lol
neill54 Posted June 15, 2010 Posted June 15, 2010 Have to say cathy we bought Gus 's old forester and it's briliant needs a few things brakes and clutch but hey it's just hit the 100k and it drives like a dream it's no slouch either if only my wife who drives it daily would stop trying to destroy it! Sixth car on the trot for her that's had car park pillar battle damage!! Buy one cause it's the first car we have bought and we both like it! probably in the new year I'm going to get a newer one maybe the sti! Neil

Neil Thanks Neil I must admit when I saw Gus's for sale a while back I did consider it so have kinda looked for one since then and have now had a good offer on my Shogun ( had to twist my arm though as I do like that too ) so if it does go in the next few days I will be getting one... Cheers Cathy
sti pretender Posted June 16, 2010 Posted June 16, 2010 Mmm Jon & Debbs have bet Cathy too that Kenny, although 2 of the scoobies Jon broke, technically AndyF had three Drag car, Spec C and his 22B. Probably enough parts to built a 4th aswell.
