Thanks for that. I believe badge is authentic. I am so disappointed as I love my
suburus. Started many many years ago with 70"s? one (like volkswagon
wagon) It was the best car. Went everywhere, queensland and back no probs.
Off road, bush bashing (collecting firewood etc.) I honestly, thought all suby
wagons had either AWD or 4WD. but there is no button or indication in car that
suggests this. My previous 94 model also went everywhere and was a great
car. Unfortunately I cooked the motor and spent a lot of money, but never right
again. Motor seized for no apparent reason. I love the size of sub. and think of it
as poor man's 4wd as can do most things I want without moving up to a
monster type. cheers wendy
