91 legacy AWD

Featured Replies

Hi everyone,

This is my first post... and I am glad I found this site. So, I am thinking about buying a 91 legacy wagon AWD. It has 93k on it - timing belt has been done along with fuel injector. Tires are good, int. is excellent, exterior paint is good for a 91, everything works on it... though it may have a very small cam seal leak. It drives great, has a 10 disc CD changer - needs new break pads and an alignment. He is asking $2900. I thought this was a good deal. What do you all think?

Not too bad - but see if you can talk him down. Is it an auto or 5sp? If you can do the brakes yourself, its cheap. otherwise, expect 300 for front brakes (maybe ask him to reduce it by that much). The cam seal is nothign, maybe a 50 dollar repair at the shop, or a lot less if you do it yourself.

I think 2900 is a little steep, however the mileage is pretty low. As mentioned, is it MT or AT?

 

The cam seal is cheap, but you have to take the timing belt off to get at it...so labor is pretty much the same as doing a timing belt job.

well a couple of things... I am hoping the breaks are just the pads which shouldn't be bad. It is a automatic transmission... and as far as the price - this is Colorado and out here Subees with more miles actually go for more if they are in good shape... unfortunately.
