1987 Subaru GL GL 4 door 4x4 review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt when through a canyon.. whoops, no more power going up hill. Differential and then heater coil. After that nothing at all.
General comments?
Love this car. Has saved my life serveral times --- twice on ice coming to a stop sign, and others just braking and manouvering in bad traffic. I love to go out in snow storms and try to get stuck, pop-her in 4x4 and it feels like someone yanked it out with a chain. You've got to do it just once. I have begun telling friends, 'Don't drive a Subaru, because you'll never want anything else again'.
