Default MLC over and new Scoob to go with it !

Picked this up today MY06 Forester 2.5XT, not quite in the same performance league as my WRX but more Dog friendly for sure

Decided against the Forester Sti in the end, I prefer the new shape plus I got a cracking deal on this one, ex demo car with only 250 miles on the clock.

Feels very grown up compared to the WRX, some nice toys as well - Black Leather, Cruise Control, heated seats etc..

Planning some mods already - Black Mesh Grill and Prodrive Performance Pack when it's available or Miltek and remap possibly...could also do with a front splitter/spoiler, the Subaru one looks pretty good..

Many Thanks to John at Westaway Motors for the super service, well recommended..

Certainly a change from your old scoob! But looks nice and subtle,would the new forrester Sti bodykit fit on?

Enjoy.

Not sure - front bumper looks to be completely different plus I expect it would be a fortune to try and get one..

Wheels went with the car - splitter/scoop/mirrors are all sold and a few enquired on the wing

...but yeah - although I got a good deal on the new car it was a bit like being rogered with a pineapple..
