FORESTER's stand up and show yourselves
 
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

We have a Forester xt to keep the P1 company! Great family/fun car.

I am not getting a people carrier lol

foresterstu 28 September 2010 07:06 PM

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

Stu what size alloys and tyre you running and have you had the car lowered?

stevie1982 28 September 2010 10:10 PM

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

They are 17" with 215 x 55 x 17 tyres
it has been dropped on forester STI struts and springs which he may change and sell

stevie1982 29 September 2010 11:04 AM

cheers Moz, so you think i could get away with 18's if i run a 45 profile tyre?

stevie1982 30 September 2010 12:08 PM
