Fixed Result  :disapp: Its comforting for the members.

Not that I have anything against the Subi, its just that their SUVs and wagons are generally driven by the sort of doddery old farts who used to meander along in their Volvos.
Hmmm..... I have come to hate the Subaru.  :crazy1:
Typically, the slowest driver in the Valley drives a Subaru Forester and he is a lifetime member of RACQ.  :twisted:

These awards don't take into account the cost of ownership. The Subis have a reputation of being expensive to service, but you wouldn't know that driving it like its stolen for a few hundred k's

he recommended scheduled service interval for MY2018 Subaru Outback models is every 6 months or 12,500 kilometres, whichever occurs first. Subaru 6 cylinder models require an interim service at 3 months or 5,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first.

at a minimum of $311.......

When Mrs G compared Hy, Kia and Subi, it was clear that, although technically nice (yet dull), the Impreza servicing costs were going to be horrendous. The Cerato felt cheap and the i30 ... well, the rest is history. :victory:

The Cordoba was her first new car and a gift from my mum, and don't forget it's a Spanish car, but she has a wealth of luxury gizmos never before seen and the Cordoba would appear very basic in comparison now.
