Having owned 4 vehicles (2 of them being Subaru legacy - which is my current vehicle as well) in the last 6 years,I think I can offer you the formula I used: I looked at what I could afford and what I wanted the vehicle for. So, look into the following: -How much money are you willing or do you want to spend? - Maintenance costs - how often will your car need repairs/service and at how much. - Fuel consumption - bei ya mafuta ni ghali - 1500cc or 2000cc - the more cylinders/cc the more fuel it consumes - Safety rating - how many airbags etc - Where will you be driving - around town or up country - all wheel drive, front wheel, or 4 wheel drive? - Will this be your daily runner or for biz - How many passengers will you be carrying on average or most of the time I sat down, narrowed down my top 3 or 4 vehicles that I wanted. Plugged in the pros and cons into a spreadsheet - the one with most pros is the one I bought! One last thing: It'll be your car, get what your heart desires, the one that will make you happy! Personal opinion: Subarus are good cars. Been happy with the two legacies that I've owned! Good luck! willing to spend 1.2 -1.5 million maintenance cost is not an issue(disregard) displacement 1800(1.8 L)- (2.0L)2000 safety rating not an issue driving around town with an occassional drive to my rural home this will be for daily commute to work passengers -two penny -stocker weka hiyo kwa spread sheet yako unipe jawabu in the alternate peg your spending range at 1.5m and you could get a neat c180 'One headache for famous medieval holy people was that someone might murder you to acquire your body parts for the relics trade'

Rank: Member Joined: 4/2/2011 Posts: 629 Location: Nai		You mentioned going to shags, how is the road? Some of the car models being suggested here cant handle those rural roads. In that sense, I can vouch for a forester. na timing belt si 50k as someone said. its around 15k. service with original parts is ; spark plugs - NGK platinum 8k Oil - 4,500 (Xenol or other synthetic) Air cleaner - - range from 1k to 1500 depending on where you get it, Fuel filter - around 3k but unaeza ngojea sale za subaru kenya oil filter - 1k to around 1500 depending on where you buy. The parts that you must never have to buy mataa - front and engine. if you maintain car well kwa nini engine iharibike?

You want to avoid being caught talking over the phone by the cops. Look for me so we can sort that ---> HERE Life is joy, death is peace, but the transition is very difficult.
