Subaru says there is over 150 differences between the XV and a Impreza Hatch
though probaby would only pick them up with a XV and a Impreza side by side to compare them

I'm not feeling the XV.

Especially that white one.


I was wondering how Scooby XV-L would react to that

Obviously to each their own style/preferences.. I went for the dark grey because I prefer a more homogeneous look. But I certainly see the benefits of the XV and highlighting the wheel arches, bumpers etc by having a contrasting paint to offset that. Scooby XV-L has a head turner of a car - a very good image for the XV whether it suits one's personal preference or not cant take that away.

Thank you soobyXV-S
Us XV owners got to stick together we are out numbered and will always to out numbered

The new Forester looks simular ro the XV just a boxier version be good to see the reactions of the belovered Foz owners when they come out

They might not be so harsh on us then

Hi,

I am polarised every time I see one. I love a white car with dark rims... so I think it looks great.

We all sort of labelled it a 'jacked up impreza' when the news came out. Not sure. Pretty keen to drive one so I can make a real assessment.

Maybe you blokes should drive over for MDSC this September?

:D

Cheers,
Nik

Hi,

Looks nice.

I'd like to see those mirrors in black, but I'm a weirdo.

Cheers,
Nik

Hey first time poster, zero time spent lurking :)

Also considering the XV 2.0i-S in white and auto. Test drove one today I was surprised at the serious lack of power but its not really a bother to me, I've had the fast car (what a waste of a tonne of money that was).

As said we are thinking about the 2.0i-S with only extra being the door sills (thought why not) think they add a bit of class.

Is anything that is of concern about this vehicle? I have never owned a subaru before and you can't really tell a lot from a short test drive, didn't help that we were in a rush to get to work either :(

Thanks bro. I might become a regular member.


CX5 Diesel > XV


Not really a fan of mazda in general, it seems everything is made to look like the madza 6 because it was made popular by teenage hair dressers.

Nice thanks, justifies my decision :)

Anyways should know if Im getting one in a few days, applied for lease today :) In the long run I wont be stuck with this car so after 3 years I can load it off and pick hopefully the turbo diesel XV by then :)

Thats is what you would think and hope. But I know a lot of cars are not made in the countries you would hope or think they are made in. I hope subaru is an exception here. Anyone confirm?
