SUBARU OUTBACK 2.0D R Outback 5dr (2008)

Subaru Outback 2.0D - Flawless?

The Subaru Outback 2.0D - three words: really nice car. It's technically stunning, absolutely gorgeous and a thrill to drive. I bought one a few weeks ago so it might still be the honeymoon period but I reckon it's the best car I've ever owned.

Subaru whipped up a new diesel engine for the Outback and it's a real beast. It produces 150bhp from just 1,800rpm. In short, it's very efficient. It can do 0-60 in about 9 seconds (not that I've been able to test this... yet) and the mpg it manages is about 50. It's roomy inside and out and it's 4x4 (of course) so it makes for a really smooth ride.

Can't find anything bad to say about the Subaru outback yet. Maybe there's not a lot of grip at the front but I'm grasping at straws here. And because the engine is so 'green' (despite the car being a 4x4 and really quite big) it's even cheap to tax. Buy one.
