1998 Subaru Forester GLS review from UK and Ireland
"Good all rounder"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not a lot other than it seems to need rear wheel bearing replacement every 10,000 miles or so (3rd time the dealer has had to replace nearside rear bearings).
General comments?
Good solid car - great on tyres, only needed to replace the first set at 40,000 miles!
