1996 Subaru Legacy L review from North America
"An extremely dependable vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Thermostat needed to be replaced. Dealer had said I must replace the water pump but it was not so.
General comments?
Car handles excellent. Minimal problems and very dependable.
Very comfortable even in the back seats. Back seats fold down for extra space.
