1996 Subaru Legacy Brighton 4dr Wagon AWD
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
My Legacy Brighton was purchased new in 1996 and has remained in my family since then. It has been subjected to hard driving and New England winters and still looks and runs great! After 275,000 miles, I have had minimal repairs except for the transmission, which has been rebuilt each 125k miles (approx.). Can't beat the all-wheel drive for the snow and body integrity is excellent - just one spot of rust after 8 years. I will definitely buy one again! Too bad they've become pricey in recent years - I guess the secret is out.

I could not be more satisfied with acar. I bought it used with 76k miles on it, and 4 years later I have 149k and going strong. Routine maintenance issues, a gasket here and there, and an alternator, and it is still going strong! No tranny issues. Just a great car!

A very reliable , comfortable and well- equipped car. Only one major servicing in 7 years- and that includes this past terrible winter. Not garaged, but started first try every day. Enough power for major highways and comfortable in any conditions. New car will be same make and model.

great car, extremely reliable. I love the AWD and you cant beat the usefulness of a wagon. next car will most likely be a subaru. It has 115k on it now, and I am not planning on getting rid of it for a LONG time.

i bought this car because my previous subaru was struck by a deer. this car has been completely reliable. i have put over 80,000 miles on it and besides regular normal maintence....i had to replace the water pump and the cam sensor. my '86 subaru had 286,000 miles on it before the deer took it out and this car still has good power and should be around to munch up more miles. my mother in law has a subaru that had almost 300 thousand miles on it(1983) and just bought another as well. get the regular scheduled maintence done along with changing the oil every 3,000 miles....you won't be dissapointed.
