Default Do I Buy another Subaru Kei vehicle?
Have seen another kei vehicle for sale - not a Sambar. £35.00 road tax, similar to my Aygo, 5 door, Black on a 57 plate. 659cc waiting for more info.
Thinking of getting rid of the Aygo and just having the little scoobies.
Subaru R2 google it to see what it looks like.

have been thinking of going down this route myself,

looking at the litchfield site for details on the R2 got me thinking a while back.

With the legacy being too clean to leave in works car park, we are still using the vectra as the work horse, looking at selling the vectra and getting a replacement to save the legacy.

I say go for it, another vehicle that fits in the owners club and also will put a smile on your face.

Will post pics when I take some after I have collected it.
Extra's that the Aygo does not have- Air Con, Electric Mirrors, including electric fold back, Proper rear hatch which will make shopping easier.Electric windows front and rear. Aygo has Remote Central Locking and electric windows but not much else.
Only pic I have.
