Incorrect choice of word, Scotty.

Instead you should try: "original". Or "hasntjumpedonthebandwagon".

(The original post: it was in reference to a joke in between Jim & Ben. I thought you'd get the joke. I thought wrong. Sorry.)

I did understand the joke don't worry, and considering the dollar value of second hand cars and gen3 in particular people are crazy not snapping them up...

And for reference the second picture of the car clearly shows my partner and a child... So in answer to your question 4 and a half years ago...

I'm afraid the pics of your partner aren't quite clear enough.


More pics of partner are required to support your statement and for reference, as you have stated.

Looks great. They look really nice in white. What made you go for the Outback over a Liberty wagon? The h6? Im just curious, as their seems to be a number of members who have gone the same route and are making their car more road friendly going with a delift kit, etc. Which seems like a lot of trouble when the Liberty wagons are already so much more of a road car compared to the Outback which is more designed as a light offroader.

Well personally I have always been an outback fan, my mum bought a 2.5l in 2002 and I learnt to drive on it, and dad bought a gen4 h6, so combine the great look of the gen3 (chunky body look with the wider guards) and the quality of the h6 engine (I've never been a fan of any n/a engines always had Subaru turbo until I drove an h6) and here you have what I bought... Plus not a fan of 2 tone so pearl white it was

I don't see it as much of a hassle doing the delift really, I managed to pick up all the parts (minus coilovers) for $150 plus a 6pack so not overly expensive... Plus with the price that gen3's are going for anyone who is after a wagon is crazy not to go that way

Because broken H6s are not everyone's cup of tea?
