    How many Skoda Drivers are ex Subaru Drivers?

    Just interested to know how many disgruntled/disenchanted Subaru drivers have sought refuge in a Skoda...

    I know I did... How many more out there?

    I shoped the octavia versus a forester......the quality of the interior and the gutless (diesel) engine swayed me away from the forester.

    Former MY01 Liberty wagon owner here! I can draw some parallels to that buying experience - I wanted something a bit different to the 'norm' and Subarus were that then (not the characterless snotboxes they are now).

    Subarus these days attract the same buyers that Volvos did in the 80s. Bland ,boring safe cars with bowls hats on the rear parcel shelf. (WRX and STI excepted).

    I have owned a Subaru which I drove over 250,000km but it wasn't recently and I didn't consider a Subaru when I purchased this car.
    I definitely wouldn't call myself a disgruntled former Subaru owner.

    I had a 2004 Outback when I first started, was thinking about them, but after driving it for 3mths was over the poor fuel economy and its sluggish heavy driving. Took the Liberty off the list and got a Mazda 6 for a few years and the RS for almost the last 3 now. I've driven a few Forestors as hire cars for work over the years, and find the turning circle for parking the biggest putoff.
