Curious as to why you have to sell a 4 door, 4wd car with boot just because you had a baby.

my wife and I have 3 other children (all girls, the new baby is a boy...yay!).

additionally, although i very much enjoy the car, its not the cheapest to run and now is the right time to sell it.

might get a cheap run around additionally to 7 seater. either way i'll miss the impreza, but have made my peace with it and will enjoy my baby boy instead

Imprezas have pretty big boots on them, more than big enough to put a couple of kids in. It's a no brainer!

What you not keen on? They look lush inside. And with the right exhaust can sound amazing. Got to admit Zafira gsi is where i'd most likely go, second to the Tribeca though.
