Used Safari FORESTER for sale in Chesterfield

This is the 2.0 X 5DR model variant of the Safari FORESTER range, available to buy at Motor Trade UK.

1,000 just spent!! This is the Subaru Forester 2.0 X. A car built for people who dont spend their weekends waxing door handles and Instagramming alloys, but for people who actually drive. Across fields. Through floods. Over mountains. Or to Sainsburys if the weathers particularly grim.

When it was new, the Forester 2.0 X set you back around 22,000 which, at the time, made it a bit of a bargain compared to the fashionable German alternatives. Under the bonnet youve got Subarus legendary flat-four 2.0-litre petrol engine, mated to a proper all-wheel drive system that actually works. None of this soft-roader marketing rubbish this thing will get you out of a muddy field at 3am with the dog, the kids, and half a tree in the boot.

The spec? Air con, roof rails, comfy cloth seats, chunky switchgear, and the sort of build quality that makes it feel like its been hewn from a single lump of granite. The insurance? Group 21, which isnt bad for something with permanent four-wheel drive. Fuel economy? Around 32 mpg combined but honestly, if youre buying a Subaru for fuel economy, youve missed the point. ULEZ? Yes its ULEZ compliant, so you can drive into London without paying the mayor a penny.
And heres the best bit. This car has been cherished like a Labrador with a trust fund. Just look at the service history:

1,040 miles
8,622 miles
18,811 miles
26,573 miles
36,828 miles
43,698 miles
50,785 miles
57,283 miles
62,829 miles
68,133 miles
90,509 miles
93,653 miles
96,099 miles
98,012 miles
and now freshly prepared for sale. Thats not a service history, thats an autobiography.

So if you want a car thatll outlast civilisation itself, shrug off bad weather, and still carry the dog, the kids, and the kitchen sink without breaking a sweat this is it. The Subaru Forester. Its not glamorous. Its not trendy. But it will keep going long after everything else has stopped.
