2003 Subaru Forester MY04 - Black - 271,693km - AWD, Auto, Leather - Budget Buy, Repair or Parts

2003 Subaru Forester MY04. All-wheel drive. 2.5-litre petrol. Automatic. 271,693 kilometres. Five seats.

Description

This is a high-mileage workhorse being sold honestly. The listing flags damage on the boot and general wear and tear throughout, and the photos back that up. The tailgate has taken a moderate hit with a visible crease and deformation in the centre of the panel. That is a panel replacement job, not a quick buff-out. The black paint on the rest of the car is showing its age with oxidation and fading across the roof and horizontal surfaces, which is typical of older black vehicles left in the Australian sun. Headlights are yellowed.



That said, the Subaru EJ25 in the MY04 Forester is a solid engine when maintained, and the Subaru AWD system is proven over hundreds of thousands of kilometres in these cars. The body panels aside from the boot appear straight. Leather interior is a bonus on an old workhorse.



At $1,500 to $1,800 guide, this is priced as what it is: a high-kilometre vehicle with cosmetic damage and age-related wear. It makes sense as a cheap rural runabout if the mechanicals check out, or as a parts donor for someone with another Forester of this era. A pre-purchase mechanical inspection is highly recommended, particularly for head gasket condition and turbo health given the mileage. Inspect in person at Villawood.
