Thinking of buying the 2001 Subaru Forester?
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2001 Subaru Forester for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Here is the 2001 Subaru Forester for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
What to check on the Forester
Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
Under the hood
It runs the 2.5L 4-cylinder, with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
The EPA rates it at 11.2 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 34 litres. In money, 1,000 km costs about $173.60 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Who the Forester suits
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage.
What to expect from the Forester
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic. With 934 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Drive it on your own roads
Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Try the Forester on your commute, then decide. Rent the Forester for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Narrowing it down
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $17.36 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
