Some research shows the Subaru nearest to the top came 5th. Not bad for a privately run campaign going up against Audi quattro's and the like.

82 Subaru Leone Touringwagon Leather Version
An import I guess.
My 82 Touring wagon doesn't have the headlight washers, electric mirrors, joystick fader for the stereo and the instrument cluster is different (of course no leather either).

Anyone know what sort of rims these are, may be 14's.
Love the bloke on the front end trying to bring it back down to earth.

Given Cliff's little scare concerning parting with his '82 Touring Wagon, by chance I'd come across a review of a 1980 version recently so went and had a quick search on youtube. The result are below and for the younger brigade, I'm going to introduce you to a new word (and horror:
Plaid!

Peter Wherrett's Torque, 1980 Ep 6
I really liked Peter's program as a kid and 40 years on seeing it for the first time again I really like his laid back but sharp style of commentary. His conclusion at the end is interesting: whilst he "can't see the point" of the Subaru 4WD wagon, he talks about a "hybrid" between it and the full-size 4WDs...it was ~14 years before Toyota's RAV4 first appeared and exactly where we are today with the (almost) takeover of the AWD SUV-type vehicles.
All 10 1980 episodes of Torque (but sadly no other years) are there for those who wish to trip back to their youth.
