Description

This Subaru Forester STI delivers an engaging and confident drive thanks to its turbocharged 2.5-litre engine and six-speed manual gearbox. The car’s all-wheel drive gives secure traction and composed handling, making it reassuring in varied conditions while still offering an involving experience for the driver. The turbo punch and responsive gearbox combine to make everyday driving lively without feeling unwieldy.

Practicality is a strong suit: the estate body provides generous cargo space and a comfortable five-seat cabin with good visibility. This SG9 example has been recently imported, is described as rust-free and well cared for, and presents as a rare, usable performance crossover ready for regular use.
