SAVE OR SCRAP? The $300 SUBARU FORESTER with a $4000 REPAIR ESTIMATE

I bought this 2009 Subaru Forester for $300, and yes — it actually runs and drives. The previous owner was quoted over $4,000 in repairs, which is why they got rid of it. In this video, I break down: • How the $300 Subaru deal came together • The drive home after picking it up • The repair invoices and $4,000 estimate that scared the previous owner • A full evaluation of the car as it sits • How much it would realistically cost just to get it running properly again This is the start of a “Save or Scrap?” series where I test whether cheap, neglected cars are actually worth fixing — or if they deserve the junkyard. Is this $300 Subaru Forester a hidden deal… or a complete money pit?
