Change...it's a part of growth. No matter how much we like things to stay the same, reality dictates that change, is a necessary part of growth, and development. At Belknap Subaru we have been blessed with some incredibly good fortune. We have a relatively new building, a facility that was designed for the comfort, and convenience of our customers, and good people.

We have grown this business in a fashion that is astounding...more accurately put, you, have helped us grow at an almost unheard of rate, and we're very grateful!

While healing, I had time to think about comparisons between our service department and the surgeon who performed my repair. We both had excellent facilities…

Every April Subaru dealers participate in Car Care Month. It is a time we set aside each year to work with our customers, usually just at the close of Winter, to help them get their car back in shape.

Mark Johnstone, President of Belknap Subaru, expressed his excitement about moving to Tilton, "We love Tilton! Belknap Subaru acquired the property at 35 Tilton Road, in Tilton, New Hampshire, (formerly known as H.K. Power Sports), as the new home for their popular Subaru Franchise. It was also perfect timing to introduce the all new Subaru Impreza. Restyled and re-engineered for better fuel economy and a look you have to see to believe.
