I'm back with another liberty
Posted: Mon May 23, 2011 10:55 pmSo I now own subaru #4, liberty #3.
Hopefully not being boring, my car history to get to here;
My first car; a black 300zx TT 5 speed manual. Great in every respect - except maintenance - 15 year old sports car isn't cheap to keep going.
So after a couple of years I moved to a WRX. My first and only car dealer purchase. Paid too much for it, but it was a great car.
Km's in the wrx started to creep up and third gear started to get tired. So I sold up and got my first liberty. An illegally low, illegally dark tinted white safety wagon. Ironically the best car I've ever owned.
Best car did not equal fastest car. Got bored and wanted another turbo. Hunted for a white GT wagon and eventually bought one from the other side of the country. Independantly inspected, scored a 9/10 on its report, shipped sight unseen and turned out to be the worst car I've ever owned (but best looking!)
BOught a boat, sold the GT for a sensible kluger. Toyota reliable - great, but dull, car.
I wanted to keep the kluger and buy an old BMW 5 series (early 90's) as a play thing. My wife vetoed the idea of 3 cars and a boat so I decided to go for the daddy and get the Liberty tuned by STI. Wagon of course!
So number 52/250 is mine. Drove 3400km back from Victoria in 3 days. Ended up with a broken windscreen and a rear tyre/wheel/suspension issue. Hopefully just a small welcome bump in the road
