Mace1647545504 Posted October 26, 2018 Report Share Posted October 26, 2018 (edited) 2005 Subaru Legacy..aka “The Ru” CR price $1800 I’ve owned the car for about 4 years, bought it from Rally Pat so he can verify a few things. I’ll list the bad first since you know the price and if you don’t feel like it’s worth it then you don’t have to read this whole thing: The bad: Mechanical 216000 k on it but...you have to read the “but’ in the good May need front brakes and rotors soon..no squealing but some noise when you stop Will need new wipers..why is it the drivers side always seems to go bad first? Outside drivers door latch doesn’t work..inside does One headlight keeps burning out and is cloudy so I use my brights Windshield washer reservoir has a crack in it so you can only get about 3-4 washes out of it Body/Interior Was in a front end accident when Pat bought it, he pounded it out and replaced the bumper. The bumper is missing some parts, has a small crack in it and isn’t aligned well. I’ve been driving it like this..not pretty but is functional. It has the hood thing to hold it up but you have to get it from the car or trunk as the thing to secure it isn't in the engine bay Some very light surface rust on the hood ..various scratches and bumps There was a spot on the passenger seat from where I went to clean another spot and spilled the cleaner on it Well if you got through that and are still interested here is The good: Pat rebuilt the top-end at about 180000. This is what the weak point is but has been taken care of. Both rear hubs replaced when I bought it at about 185000 Cabin filter done at the same time Zero leaks NO cec..srs or any weird lights on the dash R&R the tranny filter and fluid Tires done at about 185000 Oil changes every 3500 miles Battery maybe a year old..maybe less A/C compressor and rear brakes done early this summer I want to say I had the front brakes done very soon after I bought it but won’t swear to it. I’ve always taken care of the car as my son drove it to college and was his transportation up until he bought his jetta last year. Car left me stranded 1 time...when the battery died..hence the new battery. Now it’s our dog transport or gas saver. Car is in GC and if interested you can call me at 614 594 9175. Will post pics soon or text me and I'll text them to you. mace Edited October 27, 2018 by Mace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mace1647545504 Posted October 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2018 Thanks guys..my son reminded me that we replaced the radiator a 1 or 2 years ago. If it sells fine if not that's fine too. I'll put it up around late jan/early feb on crazyslist when income tax season arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
