[QUOTE="bundyjd, post: 674197, member: 3809"] I've got a 2007 non-turbo SG9 Forester dual range 5 speed with 280K's on it and still going strong. With the SG non-turbos you can usually expect to have to replace the head gaskets around 100 - 150K. Other than that, they tend to be very reliable. Ground clearance can be improved with a lift kit - mine has a 2" kit from Subieliftoz in it. Higher lift kits are available, but not recommended due to the increased risk of premature front CV shaft wear. This is from the US, but still a good general guide to buying 2nd hand.
