Subaru Car Lease Special Offers

The low centre of gravity on the Forester increases the driving experience. Featuring full-time all-wheel-drive and standard rear limited-slip differential, the engine is responsive. The Forester is also an excellent towing vehicle.

The Forester would be able to fill the duties of a family vehicle easily. It offers more than enough passenger space and is rugged and durable. One of the reasons more buyers don’t consider the Forester when buying a family car is because the Forester lacks all the creature comforts that most modern people carriers include.

This is an unlikely first car. Most younger buyers opt for something smaller and more stylish. The Forester usually appeals to more mature buyers who tend to keep them for years.

The Subaru Forester boasts a quality build but is unlikely to turn heads. Most style-oriented buyers won’t give the Forester a second thought. Despite its merit it is probably doomed to be the focus of farmers and country dwellers without other buyers giving it a fair shot.

The Subaru Impreza 2.0 litre R models can be a lot of fun to drive briskly. The four-wheel drive system adds a higher level of safety, while supple suspension, direct steering and a smooth gearchange complete the experience.

The Impreza would make an ideal car for a growing family. Its compact size will allow it to navigate easily through town and crowded streets. The Wagon’s ability to carry strollers, shopping, and other odd sized packages will come in handy as well. With rear space limited, it is more suited to accommodate children than adults. The down side is the car’s fuel economy. Fuel could prove costly for a family on a budget.

This is not likely to be the choice of most first car buyers. Running coists are too high, servicing costs are high, and insurance rates are higher than average as well. The car is easy enough to drive, it will just prove to be too costly for most novice drivers.

Impreza boasts quite a respectable image. The Impreza brand has a loyal following from the turbo models to the slower cars. Some of the reasons for this following include good dealer service, excellent reliability, solid residuals and the benefits of permanent four-wheel drive. The car’s quality has had some trouble keeping up with the likes of Ford and Vauxhall.

Subarus have really good driver appeal. The car’s all-wheel-drive grip and unusual engine configurations, are very appealing. The engine is very encouraging when worked hard. With the Legacy you lose a little refinement on coarse road surfaces, otherwise it delivers aride that is right up there with the competition.

The legacy offers loads of space, and the Sports Tourer feels rugged enough to deal with the rigors of family life. A good safety kit is offered as standard, and the car offers four-wheel drive. The car's large boot should be able to hold just about anything. The leather upholstery may take some abuse at the hands of unruly children.

The Legacy would not make an ideal first car. It’s expensive to run and insure. It's a very easy car to drive though, which will be enticing to a novice driver.

The Subaru Legacy offers a high standard of quality. The quality on offer is much better than previous generations, but the Legacy's image remains low when matched up against the German firms. This car can hold its own with even the most prestigious names, but is not likely to be given that chance.
