Subaru + Labrador

[Mr Taxpayer]

X is basic
E is a bit higher
T is Turbo
n is the in built sat nav
the All-weather pack which gives the enormous sun-roof, heated seats and heater element under the windscreen wipers.

39kg greyhound?! What the hell do you feed it?

I'll definitely have a look at the XT's when the time comes. Plenty about - anything spec wise that's worth hunting for? I'm not familiar with the trim levels they came with. Like the Imprezas, is it grey plastic and a tape deck?

There's actually not a scrap of fat on him, he's just huge for a greyhound.

He's a rescue dog but never raced, as we found out that although his pedigree is absolutely top class he was too big to go round bends efficiently, so ultimately that made him a big useless dollop of a mutt.

As for trim, I have the XTE, which gets you heated leather, climate control, panoramic sunroof & sat nav.

Two dogs and a 10 plate hatch owner here. Plenty of surface area in the boot and it's fine for my dogs. Might be a stretch for a lab because the boot floor is very high.

Thanks for that! I know once again what my perfect all round car is and finally with the 2.0 Direct Injection Turbo !

Ditto. I just need to give it 8 years to depreciate

Forester 2.5XT owner here. Own a very tall labrador/great dane/dalmatian cross thing who loves the space. Can get the baby's 3 wheelee bungee roped to the dog guard and him in as well which would be impossible in the wagon or hatech.

As for the car. Totally faultless over 6 years and a hoot to drive. Actually selling mine in a months time as I need LESS practality now the wife has a mazda5.

2005 2.5XT (pre-facelift) all come with Sat nav, full leather, climate control, cruise control, 6 CD changer, heated everything, moon roof and lower tax :-) (same as later XTEN spec)
