1991 Subaru Loyale 4WD Wagon review from North America
"Dependable, reliable and... Loyal (e)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?

General comments?
Despite some problems, the car has been wonderful.
Comfort is good enough, 4wd is great, and the wagon has been able to haul furniture, an oven and a washing machine.
Slow w/automatic, but I manage.
There are some internal engine oil leaks, but I just keep feeding it 10w30 and it runs reliably.
22mpg.
Great snow vehicle!
