1986 Subaru GL Wagon review from North America
"Great bargain for $1400"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rear gate doesn't lock that easily.
The clutch is very stiff and doesn't shift that easily.
There is no radio.
General comments?
I love my Subaru!
The cabin is roomy and I have hauling space.
The driver seat doesn't pull up far enough and is permanently reclined to a degree.
