Cool One Ozzie based New forester

Well after a UK turbo for 3 years, a UK300 for a further 3, and a move down under, the new car of choice is

Picked it up and drove it home 2 hours ago, more detailed photos to follow over the weekend, assuming i do not spend time running up the K's.

Its the 2.5 litre XT, with Luxury pack, leather and nearly full length sun roof

Cheers

How's the insurance down there?

Was in Sydney last year and my cousin was telling me it's a nightmare getting Impreza's insured in the city.

Still wouldn't put me off moving down there

Ozzy, the wrx is the tool of choice for ram raiders, tea leafs (just in the news about the amount get carjacked in Sydney) and "hoons" as the locals call them, so i assume the insurance is just as high. But to put it into perspective,
on the UK300 in the UK, i paid on average 1300 pounds and i am an old git, per year. The forester is 1200 ozzie dollars, so thats about 490 pounds, nearly a 3rd Your right about the place, its excellent so far, pity the day is taken up with work

Hey Cliff, see you got an 01 now, what happened to the wagon ??

Cheers
