Subaru Outback Base (2000)
for sale

Price: US $1,990.00

Description:

Old Subarus never die, they just get passed on to another family member. Except in this case, there are no more family members that need a car. Now’s your chance to score a great (but not very attractive) reliable car.
No major wreck history, just a bit of “parking lot rash”. We bought this from a friend with about 65K on it in 2010. Since then it has served both of our kids as a college/grad school/Colorado trip car. Kids are moved out, so the car goes to someone else now.
Recent work in last 2 years includes: full exhaust system, including “Y-pipe” and catalytic converters; front brakes including calipers; rear brakes; left rear wheel bearing; left front driveshaft; A/C repair and recharge. Tires are in good condition, will likely need replacement in about 15, 000 miles. Alternator was replaced about 3 years ago. Windshield was replaced by the dealer, when the car was in for the exhaust repair. Somehow it got cracked while in their custody, and they replaced it for us. Nice. All other systems work as they are supposed to, and the car tracks straight on the road.
This generation of Subaru engines was notorious for having head gaskets fail before their time. We had the head gaskets replaced at about 85, 000 miles, and no acceleration or cooling issues since. The A/C repair last year was adequate, but the system will need a recharge at the end of this Summer; it’s not as cold as it was after the repair. There is a 1-1/4 hitch attached, and wired. It was used mostly to hold a hitch receiver bike rack, and I believe to tow a small trailer one time.
The car has spent most of its time outdoors, either on the driveway or on the street. The interior is very clean. I have tried to show where all the surface rust is-above driver’s door frame, front fender, rear fenders. The drivers front fender got whacked while the car was parallel-parked on a narrow street when somebody hit it while trying to negotiate a slippery road(no, they did not leave a note) and all we did was take the fender & off bend it back into place so that we can open the door. Car still drives fine.
Subaru has the best all-wheel-drive system;it’s never gotten stuck in snow or anything. It is not the prettiest car listed on eBay, but it is reliable.
This vehicle is being offered for sale locally (there's a sign in the window...), so I may need to end the listing early if it sells locally. Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding!
