Subaru has added a new limited edition to its Outback range, boasting £1,000 worth of extra equipment.

Based on the Outback 2.5 SE automatic, the new model features an ivory leather interior, rear air-conditioning outlets and MOMO leather steering wheel with inset audio controls.

Available in time for the March 07 number plate change, the special edition Outback costs the same £24,925 on-the-road as the regular SE automatic and is offered in either diamond grey metallic or dark green mica with urban grey bumpers and body cladding.

Improved standard equipment includes HID (high intensity discharge) headlamps with pop-out washers, electrically-folding door mirrors, front projector foglamps, six-disc in-dash CD autochanger with MP3 facility, dual-zone climate control and curtain airbags.

The Outback 2.5 SE also has heated front seats, door mirrors and windscreen de-icer, electrically-powered sun-roof, cruise-control and an eight-way electrically-operated driver’s seat.
