Rather! At least it makes the choice of which car to drive fairly easy – there is not much duplication between the two!
It's a bit unfair really, apart from normal servicing, the car got little attention - I just relied on it to start every time and haul huge amounts of kit all over the place. Old Forester is 10 yrs old, 158k miles and was a real workhorse. Have a replacement lined up - Mk II, 18k miles Dec '05, £10k. Moderately loaded, black and with a plate ending 'EVL'....
