Having just moved house in to the wilds of the pennines I'm looking to buy an 'suv' with good winter weather capability. The new forester fits the bill nicely, it will be a daily use car covering approx 20k miles a year. Simple question, any reliability issues with the 20ee diesel engine ? Thanks in advance.........

Thanks for the feedback, I will be buying new or ex-demo so will have bags of warranty, it's just reassuring to read some experienced feedback. i ran a few subaru petrols some years ago but defected to Honda CRV's only for the diesel economy when fuel prices became silly and before the boxer diesel was available . The Hondas were good cars but the poor weather capability is nothing like the Subarus which is brilliant. Looking forward to a boxer diesel now.
