I am sure the L Series Wagon stopped in 92 or 94, but what about the sedans FWD, 4WD NA, and the RX 4WD, and GLTA?

The oldest I've seen is a 89 Royale

RSR 555 is right.

Sedans (of all denominations) were last manufactured in 1989, as Liberty was phased in that year.

Wagons were maufactured until sometime in 1993, as Impreza wagon (with the povo pack actually call 'sportswagon) was brought in as replacement in 1994.

The above are build dates only. Compliance dates may be a bit later depending on when the cars were imported.

I'm thinking the RX Leone was available in 85 and 86 only but they may have been some sold in 87.

In the L.Series model there was early 85/86 and then the later model 87 to 90s.. there was some slight external changes (grille, corner lights, etc) but lots of changes to the interior and engine emissions.

According to Redbook the RX Turbo ended in 87 and the GLTA 88.

and they both have the centre brake light and the turbo blue with a blacked out panel between tail lights is new to me -sort of a Ford 1979 XD Fairmont Ghia look.

Sometimes listings cannot be trusted - like the books that list all Brumby beyond 1985 to be EA82 !

Where is Thomas....?
