The SUBARU LEGACY (1998-07) OUTBACK 5DR SW 2.5I 165 SEN AUTO4 is a spacious estate with raised, outdoorsy styling, sitting between a conventional family car and an SUV in the UK used market. Its automatic gearbox and five-door layout make it a versatile choice for everyday driving and weekend escapes. Mycarcheck.com records three look-ups across two distinct VINs, so the figures offer only a small snapshot, not a full picture of ownership. Within that sample, average mileage was 173,000, annual use 2,000 miles and six previous keepers; average private-sale valuation was £500. Check each car’s history and condition carefully. With Subaru’s all-wheel-drive reputation and estate space, the Outback suits families, rural drivers and anyone seeking confidence on wet or rough roads. Unlike ordinary estates such as the Mondeo, it combines a raised ride with a relaxed drive. Fuel use and repairs may exceed newer rivals, so inspect carefully before buying.
