Hi All,
Subaru's are taking over here. It started with a '90 Loyale turbo wagon. I purchased my '89 rx turbo late last Sept. The '09 corolla was purchased the end of march upon my return from a job I did in San Francisco that kept me away from home for almost a year. It was to be my daily driver as I told the missus and kids I would be home daily. Being home daily means a 286 mile round trip daily as they don't build tall buildings on the coast. Since getting the RX guess what car sits at home. I love everything about this car except it's apperance and it is in stock form for now. The wagon has it issues and once addressed the RX gets disassembled and gone thru before I drive it into the ground ( 19k miles since oct ). The real shame here is I purchased the corolla before owning my first subaru. At todays prices what I paid would have purchased a fine outback. Well, live and learn.
Cheers all, Mark

I have a 92 Turbo L series wagon, an 83 Leone sedan and a 99 Nissan Pulsar.

Subarus seem to be infectious. Since ive owned mine, my cousin bought a forester, my brother bought a liberty and a mate bought an outback.

Well mine is usually parked in gannon's driveway but haha, 91' L wagon.

...ditto to that. Since i bought my Brumby, two Liberty's have popped up in the yard, and Mum bought a Forester.....

other than that, there's the old faithful 323 turbo wagon, and an MPV. Once i sell the MPV, the Lib wagon will take over as family car.

Absolutely - there are only European Carp where I ski anyway...and bloody eels!! Nothing like falling off and coming up with an eel attached to your big toe!

Besides the noise is unbearable - you need ear protection when skiing - it was my Fathers fault - he is probably looking down on me and laughing at me!

Hooroo - off to tinker on the Soob:D
