2005 Subaru Legacy 2.0 i review from Singapore
"Good drivers car - passengers look elsewhere"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Day 1 - front left fog light not working - easily fixed.
Steering pulls very slightly towards passenger side since Day 1.
General comments?
SPACE - for a mid sized car, not great. Seats are low so perceived space is not great even though legroom is OK. Front legroom is also not great as it it taken up by the gearbox and drive train. Glove box small and not much storage space.
SEATS - Good, no complaints.
RIDE - Could be better.
HANDLING - Fantastic. As good as it gets.
NOISE - Very quiet.
PERFORMANCE - Underpowered and engine needs to be pushed hard to 3000-5000 revs to get decent performance at the expense of FC. Unresponsive at low revs.
ECONOMY - Not bad (40 mpg or 14 km/l) on expressways. Push it hard in town and you get 15-20 mpg or 5-7 km/l)
