Alright Lads!
Thanks for all the advice! Jack has been keeping me updated daily on the progress with the car. Although was told it might be sold as is (with this mysterious whine)
I am interested in the car, if all these problems are sorted and the money is right, as id be willing to put a few quid into getting it back to standard.
I am still a bit concerned about the car and its condition. This would be my first Subaru and really do not want to be disappointed.
All we can do is hope the 'whine' problem is solved and that the compression test comes back good.
A good map would then be on the cards
Again cheers for all the help,
Richard
