48 and just bought my 1st Subaru
 

Hi Guys

Had loads decent cars back in the day, Mk1 RS2000's, Mk2, RS3100 and 2.8i Capri's..... Met the missus and it all went downhill :) (j/k)


Anyway I had my eye on this for a few weeks, 12 years old.... The last 8 years it has done 3000 miles per year, 55,000 on the clock....


The local dealer I bought it from was selling it on behalf of a customer, so still waiting on logbook and paperwork, hopefully some nice service history in there also, 2 owners in the same little village from new....


Anything I should be looking out for ? It really is like new inside and out !


Cheers

Car looks mint.

Keep up the servicing and you should be good :)

Thanks mate ;)

What do you recommend I get done 1st, I had it a good 300 mile journey at the weekend to Glasgow and back, all seems good, oil and levels etc

Do I just get Oil and Filter or more done ?

Depends what it's had and when.

Personally every time I buy a car I like to try and give it a full service so I know where I am.

Oil, Oil filter, air filter, fuel filter as a start.

Coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, gearbox oil, rear diff oil, aux belts, cam belt, spark plugs etc.. Depending on history

Top man, looks nice & tidy from the pics!

pretty much the same as this for me aswell! always a good starting point.

This use the best, don.t skimp on service items, and enjoy:luxhello:

bought mine at 48, that was 13 years ago!!,still going strong(car not me):lol1:

only problem you will have, its a BA*TARD to keep clean.......
