The SUBARU LEGACY (1998-07) OUTBACK 5DR SW 2.5I S is a five-door estate with a tougher, raised-up look and all-wheel-drive confidence, sitting between a family wagon and an early crossover in the UK used-car market. It offers more load space and road presence than a conventional saloon, without the bulk of a modern SUV. mycarcheck.com has recorded 24 checks covering 18 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot rather than a huge sample. Those records show an average private-sale valuation of £800 and average recorded mileage of 129,000 miles. Typical annual mileage is 5,000, while cars have had around four previous keepers. It suits families and outdoor-minded drivers needing space for country roads, weekend trips or winter journeys. The 2.5-litre petrol engine and sure-footed traction create a reassuring feel, though fuel costs may exceed those of smaller estate rivals. Its rugged character and all-weather ability are the main attractions in its class.
