The 2013 Subaru Liberty 2.5i Wagon was purchased just over one year ago, and we have loved every single moment of driving it. With the help of some of my mates, we decided the car's name would be #mysubie. We purchased the Liberty 2.5i because Subaru has a very good reputation, it was a fantastic price for the car, good fuel economy, and it has lots of space for the family of five...
Good things come to those who wait, and oh how I waited. Subaru teased me for a long time with a true return to form: an all-wheel drive, non-SUV, turbo wagon. God how I lusted for the purr of a flat-four on idle and the snarl of angry wasps when it's given the beans. This should've been a true return to form for Subaru: a fun family wagon and a car you can tune to squeeze more angry killerwatts out of...
I would like to introduce our MY99 Subaru Impreza WRX. This car has been in my family for around 15 years. The car is completely standard, just as it left the factory back in 1998. The WRX followed on from the original Liberty/Legacy RS as a four-door, turbocharged, all-wheel-drive performance sedan...
I was looking around for a late-model SUV for the wife, and it needed to be a practical size to fit the kids and dog, but not too big as she wanted easy parking capability in carparks. She does a lot of kilometres driving around with kids and our main car for the weekends and holidays...
I have had this car for a few years now, as a second car to run myself and kids to work/school, plus the occasional fun drive on weekends. So it had to be affordable, reasonably practical, reliable, and still have enough power and good handling for occasional winding road blasts. I have always loved the look of the Gen 4 Liberty, this being my fifth Liberty and second Gen 4...
Having used the 2016 Subaru WRX Premium daily for the last 18 months, I feel like I’m in a good position to give an honest review. I’ll start by saying, I’ve been all about the ‘muscle car’ from a very young age, so moving to a four-cylinder ‘buzz box’ was a big step for me...
It has been my dream car from the day I saw it in 2012 when I was 18, to the day I bought it in 2016 when I was 22. I have tried to be as unbiased as possible, but I do apologise if I get emotion involved in this piece. The first question that would pop into your mind would be why I chose this over the GTS86 – well, I didn't...
I bought a six-cylinder Subaru because I was intrigued by the fact that such a curious concept only done in four-cylinders, the boxer engine (which had fascinated me from my first interest in car), had been re-invented alongside Porsche for an affordable everyday driver. I was looking for a first car at the time as I'd just passed my licence test, and wouldn't be sated by a cheap two-litre beater...
Purchased in the summer of 2016, my MY05 Subaru Liberty (affectionately called Mia) has served me well. It had 199,000km on the clock at pick-up and now has 243,000km – and not a single failure to be noted. The engine (EZ30) has no leaks, the transmission feels fairly tight and the ride is nice and supple...
I'm gazing into the cloud of water gushing from underneath the 18-wheeler in front of me. The window wipers are vigorously spreading the mud over my windscreen, while I fight the steering wheel to keep the car from aquaplaning. An opportunity strikes as the lane besides me clears for a moment. I take the chance and pin my foot hard up against the firewall...
I previously owned a 2013 Subaru BRZ with manual transmission. I owned it for the last three years and loved it. I was quite happy about everything with the stock model and didn't make any modifications. Now, the time has come, and I had to replace my car with something practical for my baby. I sold my BRZ for $26,000 and didn't want to spend extra money to buy a new car...
