For Sale. Outback 2.00 REn. July 2009. Metallic Silver. All the extras: SaNav,black leather seats, sun roof, alloys etc. The full specification plus boot mat, towing bar, Mont Blanc luggage rails. Full service history and taxed till the end of June 2013. It is clean and in excellent condition. All tyres good and it had a new clutch at 72k miles. It is a non-runner as the engine blew at 102k miles last Friday. I am gutted but I need a car each day. It needs someone who knows what they are doing, has an engine and not relying on Subaru quotes for parts! If you are interested just make me an offer. If you want to know more happy to chat on 07803617859. Car is near Stamford, Lincs.

Hi. I wonder if anyone can help me. I have a July 2009 2.00 Outback REn. Great car. The trouble is the engine blew last Friday. It seems that the fuel has been injected into the engine oil somehow (according to the local mechanic) and its scrap. The engine had done 102k miles. Subaru are quoting £13k for parts (!). I have had one offer of £7k for a new engine and dismantlers are saying £3k to buy one. I was offered £1k for it by a garage. I think the car is worth about £11 according to Parkers Any ideas on how I can sell it on for the best price without me getting ripped off? Many thanks.
