Subaru Forester 2008 Diesel 2.0 litres, Manual gearbox
Pros: Excellent trafficability (snow and mud is not an obstacle), an economic engine, good dynamics, pleasant to drive on gravel roads.
Cons: Very soft in original rear suspension - to feel as bad asphalt vessel waves, sound insulation could be better, something rattles roof hatch (warranty period, blame it also could not find).
