That is very nice - can you get them over here ? Never seen one... Love the studded tyres, extremely masculine :D
 
Is it just me or does that sound quite reasonably priced ? I am off for a google...
 
errrrhum .......... bought it in Falkirk last week

30 Grand for the full bollox model , but ........

Pay 50% on pick up, 50% in 24 months, no interest .....

and.....

any dents or scratches fixed free for 3 years
any wheel damage, replacement for 3 years
any collision damage, they handle your insurance and pay and difference to have it fixed by them.

and the list goes on ..............


They are serious about selling them :D

Im working in Norway till end january, drove over at the weekend, bought the studded tyres here .......... :thumbsup:

yes it is, and its only tax band G plus reckon they get over 40 mpg at least its better looking than the Tribeca
 
Its way better than I expected - its a proper 4 wheel drive unlike the others that are all a bit fake.

Interior is very good, but not super luxury
Its got every gizmo you can think of
But with those tyres, its totally unstopable here ....

On the subaru site it says the 50% deal is available on the 1600 model,
Subaru Falkirk got them to extend it to cover the full range.
 
Looks pretty good on the website... Shame you can't get the funky concept colours and mahoosive touch screen 8)
 
mines got a touch screen ............

its the 2.0 SE Lux Premium with Lineatronic Auto Box

Full leather Interior ..
Heated seats etc ............

Ill take a piccie in the morning ...........
 
Wife has had a 2.0 imprezza for last 4.5 years from I think the same dealer in Falkirk - it just works she loves it - came with xenon headlights as std - one warranty claim for a new rear load bay cover has been it- if you need all year round traction these things are excellent .

Only slight gripe I had with the XV ( which is the 2013 Imprezza on raised suspension) is the boot is quite small.
 
Remember those studded tyres when I was working in Norway. Brilliant :thumbsup:

Recall that come spring they had to repair two strips down each lane of the road where the studs had worn it away!
 
Drove one of these yesterday 2.0 D in SE form.. Lovely all weather car and pretty good value at the moment .. Worth a look for a winter hold all.
