I got myself a cheap forester s Turbo (51 plate) to run the dogs around in. It has

a) Leaky petrol tank (seems to come from the filler pipe)
b) Leaky rear suspension
c) exhaust made of rust

So I was wondering if anyone had any 2nd hand parts to fix these issues. Thought I would ask on here before venturing into E-bay land and the unknown.

It's probably be worth registering and putting the same question to http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f75/

The European Marketplace sub-forum can often list people breaking cars etc.

So you can buy new suspension and a nice stainless exhaust? Others would kill for such an opportunity! Foresterowners forum in the Europe section has plenty of for sale stuff.
