This is a really good deal on the car and as I said in your other question, it's very clean. The dealer does not list ANY information on the car, so you need to find out what's going on with it. You need to check the headgaskets to see if they have been done before and how they were done. You...

That looks very clean! But check the headgaskets to see if they have been done before and how they were done. You should be able to see visually on the outside if they were replaced with updated OEM headgaskets.

No...the light indicates a problem. I had a similar problem with my Outback, it ended up being a bad clockspring in the steering column. It could be anything in the system though, Like a impact sensor, connector, wire, or computer (the airbag system has its own on a Subaru). The only way to know...

The Honda CR-V has been completely redesigned for 2008, and it has a very spacious interior, with comfortable seating and a smooth ride.
The CR-V is also more fuel-efficient, but it just isn't much fun to drive and it's not as rugged when taking on the rutted trail to a campsite.
The Outlander is a different type of crossover; it also caters more to on-road performance, but it has a decidedly sporty character, with a firm ride and very crisp handling.
On paper, it competes closely with the 2008 Subaru Forester, but in reality, it's quite a bit heavier and just doesn't feel as nimble.
However, both of these models have the Forester beat for refinement.
Another choice, for those who appreciate the Forester's boxiness and city-friendliness, is the Scion xB.
The Scion has a lower price than the Forester, with a similar nimble feel on the road, and it's more fuel-efficient.
However, it doesn't have the rugged ability or the all-wheel drive of the Subaru.
