physh Regular Location: Canberra Registered: May 2002	New Car..... ? Tue, 13 August 2002 09:10 Time has come for me to get rid of my "token" NON-toyota... it's a 1997 Ford XR6, running dual fuel. It's been a brilliant car to drive, nearly 3 years of reliable driving (and cheap too - how does 5500km driving from canberra to bundy, around then back for $280 in fuel sound???), and it's a car that can get up and boogie with most cars on the road in terms of performance. Doesn't even handle too badly for a 1700 odd kilo RWD car... My problem is, I don't know what the next car is going to be! I mean, I'm building my celica up for a speed fix, a (few) corollas for my bashing fix, and i'll be getting a 4WD soon to tow them all... so I'm left with replacing my daily driver with something that won't leave me disappointed. Something with the all comfortable crap that I've gotten used to (spoilt I know) like A/C, power steering, cruise control, ABS, airbags, etc. Something that's comfy for a 6'4" guy driving a fair whack of kays (35,000 per year). Question is... WHAT??? The ONLY idea I can come up with is a Subaru Liberty RX 2.5 - it has all the mod cons, AWD etc - I just don't know if it has the poke... (Anyone know if the 2.5 N/A scubie engine can be made to give some good power? anyone driven one?) I want to keep it under $35k, but I'm outta ideas... Somebody help me!!! any suggestions? insights? revelations? -Nick [Report message to a moderator]
