Blue 2021 Subaru Forester Premier for sale in Roach

The 2021 Subaru Forester Premier for buyers

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Subaru Forester Premier for sale by us right now. Here is the 2021 Subaru Forester Premier for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

What to check on the Forester

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 210 complaints with NHTSA, most often about visibility/wiper, unknown or other and electrical system; have those parts checked. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

Under the hood

The 2.5L 4-cylinder does the work, through an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

Its combined rating is 8.2 L/100 km, which means roughly 25 litres for 300 km. Expect about $12.71 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

A good match for

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

How big it is

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Rent it for a week first

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Drive the Forester on your commute before you commit to it. A test week in the Forester tells you more than any review.

Picking a year and a trim

Compare the Premier with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

Running costs

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Renting for Roach

Roach is about 1,306 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Roach.
