Subarus have always been something of an acquired taste for UK buyers, and owners are immensely loyal. Unusually, for Japanese cars, they are quite individual in many ways. There's the 'flat' four engines (like an Alfa Romeo 33's), frameless door windows and four-wheel drive transmissions. Many buyers have rejected the Legacy because they don't know enough about it. Which is a pity because most examples are well-equipped, well-built, affordable and good to drive, yet seemingly forgotten by many family used car buyers. Plus you get that go almost anywhere four-wheel drive system as part of the package.
An intelligently designed car with a couple of nicely odd touches to endear you to it. The four-wheel drive models, especially estates, have an almost cult-like following among new and used buyers and it's not hard to see why.
