The condition is excellent. 
It has never been in an accident;
-although 6 years ago someone hit it in a parking lot and scratched and dented the side
-I had the damage repaired.

My Mom turns 80 this year and it is no longer safe for her to drive,
this is also the reason I am selling it for her.

2002 SUBARU FORESTER-L AWD. 
This sought-after Forester “mini – SUV” body style was hard to find with only 62k on a 7 year old car.

The seller was a Yoga Teacher.
The Buyer a Therapist.

The Yoga Teacher delivered it to the family therapist in Great Barrington Mass. She drove him back to Long Island.  Apparently they hit it off, and she gave him her favorite book on couples’ relationships… Dr. Ron charges for car finding, but not for his dating service… You never know.

Dr. Ron’s bookkeeper has the same car and says, "My 95 Subaru has 150k and is still going strong."

2007 FORD ESCAPE XLT LTD with only 25,000 miles for $14,000.  AWD, fast V6, Leather, Moonroof, Tow Package,  etc…  Car and Driver Magazine voted it best small SUV.  (It beat out the Honda, Toyota and Subaru).   I bought it two years ago for my first paying client named Jill (Testimonial coming) from a kind woman in CT who was the original owner.  She had just leased a BMW convertible and was tired of the little SUV she had paid $28,000 for four years earlier.
