1993 Subaru Legacy 4 Cam Turbo Estate review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent performance, and value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only the usual wear and tear...
Tyres at 105k.
Drive shaft now at 112k.
.. and that's all!
General comments?
Performance for a 'boring' estate car is fantastic.
Why compromise performance for economy. Let's face it, once in a while, we all want to have a little burn up, even if it's only for 500 yds, and this car will give you a grin, even over the shortest distance, and how many times have you been stuck behind an Escort, on the way to the beach?? This car gives you lift-off, when you need it, and I don't need it very often.
Essentially, these are cheap to buy, more expensive to run, but the performance makes up for that, and with this sort of car, you won't get bored as quickly as you would if you bought your... run with the pack type car.
Seats are rubbish. The stereo is an epic to replace, if you want a cd player in there, but apart from that, these are great cars, and fabulous value for money.
A year on, and my £1500 investment hasn't dropped at all, but the other run with the pack cars are all now cheaper to buy. That makes up for the running costs!!
