After 7 years I am finally looking to change my car. My old Subaru Forester has done 190,000 miles and is looking the worse for wear so here's the dilemma....
1) I want something a bit special; but not something that shouts 'what a cunt' or 'fucking pikey' or 'Motobility'.
2) I live in the sticks; so something with 4 wheel drive
3) I have two dogs; so something with load space
4) I want something sporty (proper sporty not just look sporty); but not a Range Rover Sport or other WAG cars (see point 1)
5) I've got a decent budget; but hate depreciation
What should I buy?!?

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

a new forester,
Thought about that but they no longer make the STI version which means the performance is wank - if they did then there would be no discussion |

Certainly a contender - they just revamped it as well which goes in its favour. Not sure f it can be classed as a WAG car or is proper sporty |
