1998 Forester Turbo, on
show,
available September 1998,
an exciting little number.
Subaru Forester made its Australian show debut in February.
On sale: US July 1997, Australia August 1997
Think of a Subaru Impreza
with a full station wagon rear end and a consequent
large increase in interior space over the Impreza's
hatch-back compromise, that's a Subaru Forester.

Having been thoroughly impressed with my
Subaru Forester Limited's
performance during the first twelve months of its life
here are some photos of the Forester in action
in the Blue Mountains National Park, west of Sydney.
This car has performed flawlessly over 30000km on sealed roads, 3000km
on unsealed roads and 1500km on rough tracks. It has crossed numerous
rivers up to 2 feet deep, climbed 1:2 gradients over 1km long, driven
through mud and snow, launched boats directly into lakes without boat
ramps and successfully avoided many, many roadside animals! (the ABS
works wonders even on rough unsealed surfaces!) -

Holden Astra Convertible Turbo(Highly recommended sports car), from $49,990
This European convertible is a stunning car in so many ways. It's a great drive (with high performance 147kw Turbo). It's practical and apart from a small boot has abundant room for 4 or 5 at a pinch. It's loaded with standard features: air, power windows / steer, cruise, 6 speaker CD, ABS, traction control, airbags & more. It also looks great! My Managing Director's lovely wife owns one of these & I have no hesitation in recommending this car to you. A true bargain for a high performance Euro Convertible.
