Spare engine or 3....check*

Anything is possible, just have to have some cash. Coolant, oil, filters etc are pretty easy to be done yourself. Major servicing done by garage.

this is true...although its not 4 years anymore!! but even once you are done you still have to learn as companys get more technology into cars! But most of the stuff is pretty easy to do anyway, although stuff ups can happen to anyone....even mechanics!

I might even mix it up a bit, complete minor servicing myself and get a dealer to go over it every 10,000kms just for the buyers market later on down the track.

Don't know about the rest of you but i'm kind of discouraged hearing that the owner does all the servicing themselves.


As for garages other than performance work shops, do you guys generally stick to Subaru dealers or places like auto master etc?
