Right i know there is the forester.org and yes i am a member but there are not many users on the Europe side and i am a die hard impreza fan at heart and a previous owner of some tidy examples but i have bought a forester as a workhorse whilst i am looking to get on the property ladder and was wondering how many owners on here have one / use one as an everyday car or even play toy
all are welcome, uk, japs, turbos, sti's
here is your time to show them off, i will get mine up as soon as its clean
cheers

ello im running a 1999 forester turbo s as my daily drive and enjoy every single mile that i drive in it lol......cheaper insurance than an impreza but still the performance and handling im not a fan on the latest versions of the forester they look to much like a 4x4 country car


Moz was interested in your dads but came across mine at a lot less so as I wanted a cheap run around it won I am afraid although your old mans looks the nuts in White.
Could you tell me what size alloys he has got fitted and what size tyre?
Also has it been dropped?
Cheers

hiya ste im running 205x40x17 its on standard suspension at the moment till paypal sort my account out was running sti suspension but one of them failed and went back to standard the pic is standard set up
cool from what i can see a 225 / 40 / 18 set up will fit, so might keep my eye out for a set to replace my 17's
