1986 Subaru Sherpa review from Australia and New Zealand
"High value for money, unbeatable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New CV joints
Gear shift bushes renewed
Starter motor replaced with 2nd hand unit.
General comments?
Most economical car I ever had, e. g around 4.2 l/100km
Quite fast and nippy and, as a wagon, lots of loading space.
More importantly: exhaust gas emissions is less than 1/2 of ordinary cars, emagine how low the CO2 emission is at only 4.2 l/100k?
