New family car ,forester ?

Post by boca » Sun Aug 02, 2015 2:30 pm

Hi guys
I have had 5 subaru in my life and still have 2 that have high 200000kms both are paddock bashers now and always start ,even being treated so badly.
I am in the market now for a new car and are looking at the forester or the honda crv. I will not be taking the vehicle off road but it will be driven on gravel roads at least 500kms a year.
I know this is a subaru site so don't bash the honda to much just a little advice on the new forester and what the lowest price the dealers will go on a base model 2.5 auto.
Your info would be greatly appreciate

As a 2013 Honda CRV owner, don't rush into the Honda either without doing your research.

From what I have read on the Honda CRVOC Forum, the 2015 CRV has a shuddering problem when at idle, now whether that extends to the Thailand built version which we get
or is restricted to just the US built models, I don't know for certain.
