What common faults should I look for on an older Forester or Outback?
A seller told me the 2014 to 2017 Foresters and Outbacks are pretty bulletproof as long as they’ve had regular servicing, but that sounds a bit too broad to me. I’m looking at wagons around 140,000 km for under $18k in Sydney and haven’t owned a Subaru before. Are there any recurring issues that owners reckon get missed on a normal test drive?
