Subaru new model looks superb.

Someone tell me does buying a brand new forester from subaru kenya at around 4.8m make sense rather than importing a used one from ibc japan at at most 2m.

I give up the Police have spoken. Maybe they got ideas from Wazua (guests) After years of driving Xtrails they have switched loyalty to the Subaru

it comes down to the features e.g engine , fuel efficiency,other addons. if the new forester's feature are worth 4m go for it

purchasing this vehicle at approx 4.8million and compared to importing from japan at a cost of 2m ..which makes sense i.e the brand new one will last for years before requiring change in parts,the 2nd hand one will offcourse need require servicing...maybe in a span of 10 years the new one would still be strong while the 2nd hand one might have already being replaced with another 2nd hand forester albeit the maintenance cost...

5.7m is enough for the King,a 2006 Landcruiser VX.It will earn you respect.You could still go for a Mercedes S 350 and from the change buy the kids a Premio.

buying a VX is one thing with 5.7.yes but maintaining it is another...am sure its more of a guzzler than the subaru.A 2006 model VX will also require parts maintenance etc.

On the other hand, a subaru brand new may not as such require serious parts maintenance or replacement.

@Money Whisperer, not everyone is in the business of changing cars like "thuruari"(did i just say thatd'oh! d'oh!).If performance is good , why change??

Best is to get the best of two worlds.most cars get the biggest depreciation hit 2-3 years after leaving the showroom..eg 25 to 40% depending on the make.cars especially Japanese ones are still in bulletproof quality around this age so if your pockets can manage it,that will be the best option.
Kenyans are fickle and a new car 10 years down the road will sell for much less despite even dealer maintenance than a "new mtumba" same age no service history but with a new numberplate series...

funny observation i made today concerning the above, met a pal at a parking lot today and she had parked her car next to some cars with newer plates, as we made our way to the building she quipped,"imagine my car is the only KBQ.... in that line of parked cars, i need to get a new car" i just laughed inside and replied you don't say!

Check out this - http://www.caradvice.com...rav4-vs-nissan-x-trail/

The Vitara/Escudo has a low range 4WD box ... useful off road in some conditions.


just read and i quote"Conclusion:

As I said at the beginning of this comparison, all three of these cars offer excellent choices for different people. If you want my advice, the Subaru Forester is the most ideal thanks to its masculine looks, ride and handling, build quality and safety features
"
need i say more


Rav4 for me anytime. I find the forester too low.


Apologies for bashing the forester but after viewing several review videos, i think the forester is a very good 4x4 car available at a very good price....about 600k cheaper than rav 4. Its a real deal.
