Anyone know someone with the worlds ugliest car?

SUBARU Australia issued another recall
notice last week, this time for the Tribeca
SUV which could, in a worst-case scenario,
see the front lateral link in the rear suspension
break and cause the driver to lose control of
the vehicle.
The second Subaru recall in the space of
eight days – the fi rst concerning turbocharged
Forester, Liberty and Impreza models –
affects 3809 Tribeca vehicles spanning
MY2007, MY2008 and MY2009. According
to Product Recalls Australia, Subaru has
“determined that the front lateral link in the
rear suspension of 07MY, 08MY and certain
09MY Tribeca vehicles may crack and if left
unchecked could, in time, break

Thats the latest one.

No one has ever bought one, so doesn't matter.

Well not quite I think I know someone who bought one.

Opinions TJ. I quite like the Tribecas. Liked them even more before they changed to the new nose.

Worlds ugliest is a big call. Seen anything made by Ssang Yong recently

Just picked my car up then, they had to replace the whole line, not just fit a bracket. Shit loads of work by the sound of it, had to remove the alot of stuff to get to it

Well I got mine back and everything was OK.
So all they did was fit the new bracket..

So tell me, if the oil pipe was misaligned has this resulted in a reduced oil flow to the turbo?
