I'm thinking of buying an 06 3.0R-B wagon

[The Sean]

Oh yer, I forgot about politely asking one of the Vic members!

To give you an idea, I bought mine from a the dealer in Parramatta for $30k with just under 30,000kms on it (mine is a MY05 / 2005 3RB manual sedan) so the VIC on stands up value wise, again if you can get it for $29k

I'd have bought a wagon too if I paused and thought about it

I'd have definitely bought a BLACK wagon in a heart beat

As Rob found out, Im sure one of the Vic members could at leastgive it a basic check over for you to mke sure its not a waste of time you going down. Maybe put the call out in the Subaru chat area and find out the area the car is in so members know where your looking.

that would at least save you travelling only to find out its no good.

Yep, and geez I hope dave wasn;t having me on..
Buying as car sight-unseen until it arrives at my door...

but we had a long chat about the car and it all stacked up with the pics and info from the dealer anyway
anyway, buying a used car is a lottery as is is.
i could get it home and it burn a litre of oil in a day.
but i couldn't have picked that up myself from a test-drive and inspection

LOL.. imagine it'd be quite scary! I wouldn't do it personally, unless I absolutely trusted the person (I like attention to detail), but risk is much less because we're all car-loving people here, so we're all more-or-less have a keen eye to detail...

When are you expecting your car Robb? Let us know how it goes...

hoping by the end of next week
final paperwork was mailed back to the dealer/ finance yesterday
so would hope to see it on a truck monday/ tuesday night...

had a bit of stuffing around with unlocking some equity to get finance sorted that threw is a few days behind.
