1988 Subaru Vortex XT review from Australia and New Zealand
"4wd turbo for under $1500 US"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at the moment which is too serious, need to replace the alternator belt, c.v. joint in the boot, and oil for the steering column.
General comments?
Considering the age of the car, it handles like a dream, very nice interior.
I don't believe much will go wrong with this car, it has been well cared for.
