I bought my MY98 new from North Subaru in December 1997.
It had seven kilometres on the clock.
I didn't actually want red (white or green were my first choices) but this was sitting in the yard because the guy who ordered it's finance defaulted, and the thought of getting it immediately, instead of in 4 months time was irresistible. plus @ 39K with bags it was the cheapest driveaway i could get at the time
It's getting a bit bunky nowadays, but to hell with it, It's been very reliable and I still like driving it.
It's acquired over the years a Butler
TBE, MY99 4 pots an uprated clutch and aluminium flywheel and not much else. And the spoiler turned pink early on hence it was christened 'Pinky' by a wise sage (Maddog)
Like Toni I've occasionally thought about getting a newer car, but I can't bear to sell it, and don't have space for another car. So it'll stay for the forseeable future.
