1982 Subaru 1800 review from Australia and New Zealand
"It will not die"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CV joint on both sides of the car had too be replaced two times in five years.
Water pump was replaced after 180,000klm
starter motor replaced at 220,000klm.
General comments?
Best car I ever owned.
Traveled all the way up the east coast of Australia and back.
The most reliable car ever.
Traveled for two years came back and she was as reliable as ever.
I love this car.
