@varaderoguy I read the article and watched the video, but there is no mention about an improved suspension. Nice price for that one, but indeed ugly interior color. It's well known that Romanian mess with the mileage of SH cars, I believe the same goes for Bulgaria. Checking the mileage at the dealer is certainly a must.

I'm from Romania. I imagine I will buy either from here or Germany. Do you know some document/article where I could read about the improved suspension on the FL?

Thanks @fr1nklyn for the thorough response, I'll definitely keep your advice in mind. I agree the split headlights are ugly but I have the feeling they could grow on me if I keep looking at them. Why would the FL be more comfortable? I thought the changes were only cosmetic + the improved instrument cluster.

Thanks Max. My budget is around 13-14000 Euros. Unfortunately it's too low for a facelifted Scout with 184 HP, at least for now. On mobile.de, the cheapest ones with 130-150k km start at 16 - 17000 Euros.

Hi, I want to buy a 4x4 wagon with higher ground clearance. The car will be used mostly for trips outside the town, on weekends. I am interested in a more spacious station wagon, because it will also be used as a camper for 1-2 nights. My 'dream car' would be a 2014+ Subaru Outback, but it is clearly over my budget and I am also afraid of costs of maintenance and possible repairs. The budget being 13-14k Euro, the options seem to be Golf 7 Alltrack (a bit more expensive, and less spacious), and Octavia 3 Scout, which I think is the best choice. I am not so much interested in the quality of the car's interior as in its reliability and practicability. Now, 2 questions about Octavia 3 Scout: Which engine do you recommend, 2.0 TDI 150HP or 2.0 TDI 184HP? Is the power difference between the 2 options noticeable? Is one more reliable than the other? What is the number of km I shouldn't cross when exploring second hand options? 150k km? 200k km? Irrelevant?
