2010 Liberties

Post by Liberty Girl » Sat May 08, 2010 7:32 pm

Hello all. I've just registered here. I am currently the very happy driver of a 2007 2.0l Liberty. My novated lease ends in early July and at the moment I am torn between re-leasing my current Liberty or taking the plunge with a newie.

I would love to hear the views of anyone who has acquired one (I would be looking at the entry-level model).

Is it true that Subaru will no longer factory-fit Sat Nav unless you get the top of the range (which is way too pricey for me)?

Thanks in advance for any opinions.

Welcome Liberty Girl :)

Nice choice of vehicle and glad to hear you're looking to stick with the Subie :) Not sure how many members here have the new model :???: but I know we'd all love to have one.. personally I'd go for the Turbo Diesel model :cool:

Sorry can't answer the Sat-Nav question.. may be best to ask your local dealership :)

Cheers,
Paul

Thanks Paul. I heard that about the Sat Nav but there's no reference to it on the Sube website (unless I'm going blind). It's no biggie - if right I'd just get a Tom Tom or something anyway.

For me I'd stick with your current subi unless you've got some sort of gripe with it...

I say this because I personally don't like subaru's body shapes in the current line up - they're much bigger than a subaru should be IMO. To me subi's have been a car that are small to medium in size, the new ones are outright large - too large!

But that's my opinion, you'd need to check it out to see what you reckon and to find out what will suit you best in the long run ;)

Cheers

Bennie

I felt like making an epic bump to this thread to say that we own a 2010 2.5i Premium Liberty. We love it except for the small list of problems we have had with it.
If i remember correctly it was a 2-2.5K extra for the satnav and Reverse camera, but it is well worth it.

And yea i know that this is a bit late to post this now, just posting for anyone else looking and who finds this thread :D

Personally i think their big and ugly, perhaps the new forrester? which by far is the nicest looking car in the subaru range.
