Driver Power is the UK’s largest independently published survey of customer attitudes to owning cars. Earlier on in the year we announced that we’d been crowned as having the ‘Best Retail Operation’ in the UK. The results are now in for the Used Car survey voted for by owners. The ‘Top 75 Used Cars To Own’ have been ranked by a comprehensive set of 35 different attributes based on 10 core categories: 

  1. Engine and gearbox 
  2. Exterior Interior and comfort 
  3. Practicality and space 
  4. Ride and handling Safety features 
  5. MPG and running costs 
  6. Reliability and build quality Infotainments, connectivity and electrics 
  7. Value 

We’re thrilled to announce that Subaru is the 2nd best brand in the UK (behind Porsche and ahead of Tesla!).



Subaru recorded top-five scores in many significant categories with owners commenting on the versatile and spacious interiors, rear legroom and boot space, plus the way their cars drive and their safety features. Reliability and overall quality are both rated second in the survey. This is great news as Subaru is a premium brand with Safety, Reliability and Capability at the heart of everything we do. 

But, that’s not all. In the top 10 'Most Reliable Used Cars' we also placed 8th for the XV Mk2 and 7th for the Outback Mk5.
