I've personally put 40k on this vehicle over the past four years and this little guy's never let me down. Only reason I'm selling it is because I want more passenger capacity and a higher top-speed.
You shouldn't need to do any work on it for another 20k, and nothing major for another 70k.
Comes with soft canopy for bed, and a rotating one-tonne lift winch.
The Good:
~30mpg
131k on Odometer
Oil changed every 3,000km
Custom-made soft canopy
One tonne winch lift for bed
Defroster and AC work
1st gear is 'bull gear'
No rust on frame or body.
Parts and Mechanics are readily available.
Solid tires with lots of tread.
Full spare.
Brakes in good health.
All boots intact.
Hauls ~500lbs in bed.
Subaru
Handles Vancouver trips well.
Regular maintenance.
The Bad:
85km/h top speed makes Up Island trips long and slow.
Tail-gate latches hold, but are finicky.
Cylinders 1 & 3 burn oil for first minute of driving, requires pulling engine to fix.
Tachometer not wired in.
No towing hitch hardpoint.
RHD with stick-shift takes some learning.
Mechanics will charge ~$130/hr
Interior smells of cigarettes
Some cosmetic flaws
2WD only
Bed sides do not fold down or remove.
Some dirt fairings are loose and will rattle.
Components Replaced:
@ 100k
Timing Belt
Water Pump
Distributor and Spark Wires
@110k
Gas Pump
Ball Joints
Battery
Transmission Gear Oil
@120k
Right Axle (w/ 70k part)
Right Axle bearings.
Additional:
Comes with translated schematics.
10w30 motor oil, ~1.5L
75w90 gear oil
Oil is changed more often due to high engine rpm.
A cup of oil every ~750km is recommended to compensate for burn-off.
Speedometer reads 5kph above actual speed.
The Right Axle crown nut occasionally backs off a couple degrees, causing a 'clicking noise,' this is not a worn CV joint - though it will wear the joint if ignored. All fifth generation Sambars have this flaw. Re-tightening the crown-nut eliminates the issue.
