    It is actually called TaraHtelka (?????????? in Russian, noun from the verb ????????? - rattle, rumble; clatter) Their second car is Urchalka (???????, noun from the verb ?????? - rumble). The names comes from the sound it produce while moving: tarahtelka should be more loud due to the diesel engine while urchalka is almost like a cat's purr

    PS: Oops, no Russian lettering is allowed anymore

    PEANUT BUTTER KID--- Hmmm, interesting thread. It seems the P.O. has dumped a whole bunch of money in mod's in that Forester. I didn't see an actual "price" on the window sticker (I guess they want people to call first). I only thing I would worry about is reliability, since it is heavily modded. The bad thing for the new owner is if it ever breaks down, then they have to track down the symtoms as they are not the original mod'er and have no inherit history of how each mod was accomplished/built. Still; it looks very capable, but could be a maintenance nightmare. Thanx for sharing.
