Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This rare, right-hand drive 1990s Subaru Forester S/tb was imported from Japan in 2022, featuring a turbocharged EJ205 engine, automatic transmission and several modifications. Recent work has addressed minor cosmetic issues, and the car is said to be in good condition, complete with supporting paperwork and the original exhaust system.
Condition
6
The car is described as being in a clean and corrosion-free condition. Some remedial work has been done to address a minor dent and peeling paint. The owner rates the paint and bodywork as "good." There are some modifications, but overall the description suggests a well-maintained vehicle, although not in perfect condition. Therefore a 'Good' rating is appropriate.
