Heh, slowing for a turn-off from the Raumati straight earlier tonight, I
had three mid 90s shaped Legacy wagons sweep past - a Grandwagon, then a
GT, and I think the last was a 250T.
Translation for those not familiar with Japanese Domestic Market models:
Grandwagon = 2.5l Legacy outback wagon, GT = 2.0l turbo Legacy, 250T =
hi trim spec 2.5l Legacy.
I never noticed until we started looking at Subarus, then found they
were everywhere.
Yeah, although to be fair I think that happens to some extent whenever
you buy a car. You keep seeing "your" car everywhere.
As an aside, can anyone recommend a good garage for Subaru servicing,
somewhere in/near the WLG cbd, or the northern suburbs?
I've been using Kelly Motors in Tawa (attached to the Caltex) for 7 or 8
years, for everything from $1000 clunkers to our current 250T. There
are two very very experienced guys there, one of whom (Noel) used to
have a 250T and now has a GT wagon. No complaints at all, and the first
time we went there they instantly identified and fixed a problem that
had baffled three other places despite repeat trys (a handbrake that
wouldn't stay adjusted on a mid 80's 323 wagon).
