in Holland it was a standard option on the 1999 Forester.

I thought that everything was level in Holland? Isn't it mostly sea bed surround by fantastic dikes?

All European spec Foresters have self levelling rear suspension. The struts pump themselves up through normal suspension movement as the car is driven; there is an external oil reservoir attached to the side of the strut.

There's no maintenance called for, they're sealed strut units; I hope they last a long time!

Does anyone has pictures. photos or schemes of a Forester self levelling rear suspension ?

In Australia, I think all Outbacks had self-levelling rear suspension and all "Limited" edition and GT Foresters also had it. Standard model Forester didn't.
