Subaru 1973-1994

Pre-Liberty Subarus once were common sights but now only the ubiquitous Brumby utility seems to survive in any quantity. These seemed not to have much collector appeal, but then one sold quickly when advertised at $14,500 and a time-warp AgQuip Special went close to cracking $20,000 at auction.

Other flat-four models to chase should they survive are 1970s FF or 1980s GLF coupes and the mid-1980s 4WD RX Turbo. These won two Australian Rally Championships yet will likely cost less than $15,000.

Non-turbo 4WDs from the 1980s are still cheap, with Touring Wagons in pristine condition perhaps managing $6000. Interesting to see a surviving Vortex Turbo coupe advertised at around $10,000.

Leone Coupe 1975-84 $12,000 [1]

Leone Sedan 1983-90 $3265 [3]

4WD Wagon 1984-92 $2800 [9]

Brumby 1984-94 $6190 [21]

Vortex Turbo $10,500 [1]
