reavo2k9 20 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Forester mate them daihatsus are not very comfortable and slow , subaru for me , each to there own atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simoman 110 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Two buses for different jobs in my opinion, the diahatsu will be better for more serious off roading but if you are talking a lamping bus a scooby will wizz all over it but wont get to the places a fourtrak will. Although as mentioned you may get a ok scooby for £800 but i doubt you will be lucky enough to get a decent diahatsu....... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

remmy1100 0 Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 had both and still have subaru, fourtrack was excellent but very juicy to run but would go anywhere but rotted badly you may consider its smaller brother the sportrack not a bad little tool Quote Link to post Share on other sites
charlie caller 3,654 Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 Forester, more comfy, less noise, better mpg, bigger boot space and dont rot like fourtraks.... Better mpg Idont think so fourtrack 2.8 td 35mpg scooby 20ltr petrol 25mpg if your lucky,also try running ur scooby on bio diesel or veg oil,which would make it much cheaper in the fourtrack,agree on rust tho Quote Link to post Share on other sites
