Hi all Gary here bought my first ever Subaru today . An all original 1998 Subaru Legacy L 2.2 Auto, amazing thing about it . It came from the UK was imported to Australia and then came back to Ireland and that's not even the amazing part. I GOT IT FOR FREE. Friend didn't have space for it and needed it gone so said if I got it going I cud have it . Had to put the bumper back on and the head lights and put a battery in it. And then I hopped Into and read the mileage and almost fainted 44K NOT 144K 44K. Ive seen 2 year old cars with more mileage. Started up first time had an engine check light il check that tomorrow has an oil leak from the sump probably a gasket or the gasket sealer gone don't know much about these boxer engines so all help appreciated its A 2.2 automatic has all the original items including Subaru Tape deck lol. Has a rear plastic boot protector that says legacy on it all electrics working and hit 112mph on the way home . Want to keep it all factory completely 100 percent how it came from subaru including hubcaps lol I tink its best to keep it like that as no point trying to do things to it .
