The replacement for the Subaru.

Outback

Sunday Drivers
Well my 14th subaru left me about 2 months ago now and I bought something different this time and I have to say I am loving it. It wouldn't be everyone cuppa tea but I choose it because it was the top version of car my late Dad drove. He loved his Astra cars and kaddett before they renamed it and had nearly every version prior to this one and I feel that he would have loved it and would have been amazed by it.

Will I see a subaru again in the future, if the right one came along I wouldn't say no but with the prices ever increasing I am not sure I could justify it.

Anyway heres what I have for the moment and I am loving it. Needs one or two jobs done over the next year.

2013 Vauxhall Astra GTC VXR.
