They are excellent aren't they! I can drive further and faster and more comfortably in the Forester than my BA, and when I get to my desitination I can swing straight on the beach access track and blast up the beach.

The GTP is in storage. Here in Brunei I drive a 2001 Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.0 Litre turbo diesel as the company car; this is the Peugot engine and it has really been problematic. Our other car is a 2005 Nissan Cefiro which is exactly the same as the Maxima sold in Oz.

Very good so far, what I can say though is the following:

We picked up a brand new one with the Sports Luxury trim level for substantially less than their list price - make sure you negotiate.

The only negative to the car would have to be the fairly tight rear seats and small doors, but for two people its fine.

We have also had an excellent sales experience with the dealership too, they could not have been more helpful.

Other than the BF, I cruise around in my diesel Mercedes Benz van. Not exactly the fastest van in town!
