Hi gang, I'm in the T'ville area and my 99 outback desperately needs a service. I was wondering if anyone could tell me of where I should take her or if you could help me out. Any advice would be appreciated, cheers, Carl.

Took her for a big drive just now.. got her up round 140 no worries, engine is beautiful. I doubt there's any issue with the bearings, think it just needs an alignment, gets a bit of a wobble only when braking down from higher speed. Back cv joints are in need of work (i think that's the problem?), ...

Bought this today! $5600.. interior isn't as bad as first thought. Seems to drive well, but front steering seems to shudder a bit, thinking bearings; though has just had it's steering bar replaced and seller said the mechanic said a wheel alignment would correct it? Suspension seems a little non-exi...

Heading down tuesday, inside of this one runs well but the interior is shabby so my old man says. Will look at a couple more while down there. Will definitely be driving one home.

in my volvo used to give and get waves all the time between our old box cars.. hope it's the same when i get my subie!

Hi guys, have settled on getting an outback, was thinking late 90's model, saw this one. It's on the sunny coast, my folks live just up the road. Dad's gonna go check it out for me on the weekend. Just wondering if there's anything in particular he should be looking at/for with this model. Any advic...

I thought this looked sick man.. looks tough enough to do what i need it to do. it's down in bris but i get holidays in two weeks, i could go pick it up. gonna ask em to take some pics of the interior, any other snaps/info you suggest i ask for? http://www.carsguide.com.au/site/search/vehicle-detail...

Thanks all for your advice, the auto aspect had me a bit skeptical.. might leave it for another grandma. Dunno if i've got the time right now for gearbox/engine changes, pretty sure something else will pop-up.

My auntie and uncle looked at the car today. This is what they had to say.. I went and had a look at the car today. It is very tidy, it started easily and ran evenly and fairly quietly. I would say someone took care to look after it, there is a carpet protector on the floor at the back and there was...

Saw that one online too.. wondering what your thoughts are of it?

G'day all, stumbled on this site yesterday and looks full of friendly people with a wealth of knowledge. Been looking for a new car for the past couple of weeks, my last car (volvo 740) is on her last legs. Definitely going to get a subie wagon of some type. I'm in Townsville, though have family on ...
