1997 Subaru Legacy 2.5 petrol non-turbo

Summary:

Great car, best in its class, name a better one, I doubt it!!

Faults:

Fuse blew a suspension circuit.

General Comments:

This car is very fast, very good acceleration, very good road holding.

Large carrying capacity, finished in met silver, still in fantastic condition, not a sign of rust.

Will keep this for the rest of its life, only drawback is frugal mpg on petrol, you can't have it all.

Having lost the owner's manual, finding it difficult getting a new one in english, can anyone please help???

1997 Subaru Legacy GT-B 2.0 twin turbo

Summary:

Try it at least once!

Faults:

Boot lid catch/lock would not operate from central locking or key. Clutch failed at about 52000km, expensive to replace.

General Comments:

Very understated q-car.Ideal family car for the person who doesn't want to draw to much attention. The kick from the second turbo from about 5000 rpm is wicked, surprise's a few people. The 4wd system is brilliant in all conditions and has never let me down. Engine offbeat note is nice, mine has a 4inch tailpipe!. Cannot find a proper replacement car? Come on Subaru, no half measures!!

1997 Subaru Legacy 4CAM Lux 2.5 petrol

Faults:

Leaking near side rear shock absorber at 52,500 miles.

General Comments:

Good, reliable car. Very comfortable on long journeys - climate control very effective. Dynamics of the car are so good it could use much more power. The 2.5 is OK, but I'm about to change it for a quicker one.
