We've had this lovely Subaru for 2 years, and she's taken us on numerous long distance trips down the Pacific coast and back. She's handled all sorts of terrain and conditions - not once letting us down. If you want AWD functionality, simple practicality, and long lasting reliability, then look no further.
There has been plenty of work done to ensure the vehicle can reliably complete long distance trips, and apart from a few minor paint scratches (shown in pics) everything is in immaculate working order - in fact, this is probably the lowest mileage 'stock' version of this car you will find on Vancouver island. |
Selling towards the end of March 2019 when we leave Canada; please message to confirm availability or arrange a viewing beforehand. |
Quick note:
The EJ22 boxer engine is legendary for it's resilience, with 1996 being the last year to feature a non-interference architecture. Thanks to this design, these engines are resilient to damage from timing failures, and the 2.2 in particular also avoids the common head gasket issues found in the 2.5. This low mileage example has been well maintained with regular tune ups, and has so far proven to be exceptionally bulletproof. |
The car drives very well, has good alignment, and feels firmly planted on the road. Subaru's AWD system from 1996 is 'always on' and has equal power distribution, so getting stuck is nearly impossible. Would be great for anybody needing a practical, reliable vehicle, capable of handling all road conditions. |
