Most other brands would be in the dump long before that with the miles and "driving habits" we SVX people have. SVX's were ahead of their time when they were built and many of their features are just getting this year.
Things happen, as the bumper sticker says, but we can purchase and maintain our SVX's cheaper that owning many new cars. I beleive a Subaru SVX today is the safest car to drive on the road today, bar none. We travel (fly) to other citys and rent a car. When I have reason to drive a new rental car of any discription, I want my SVX back-always- but moreso in the adverse weather conditions (wind, rain,ice, snow, you name it.
I am 77 years old and do all the needed work on my cars. I do all the testing, mechanical and electrical, with great help from this web site. Doing this has a two-fold advantage. Saves you a lot of money on labor-makes sure you only get needed things done-lets you know that all work is done correctly-and gives you the pride of learning and acomplishment! Oops... That would be a four-fold advantage.
Good luck!

Greetings Keith, I agree 100%. What is more I do have experience on you at 78.

I purchased mine over seven years ago as a daily driver and one concern was the safety of my wife. The only trouble of any consequence since I have had it, is that which at present is keeping it in its garage, while a top metal top radiator tank is fabricated, for me to put back in place.

At no time has the car not got us safely home. I have experienced many exotic cars, and in no way would I prefer anything to the SVX I am running as our daily driver.

Cheers, Trevor. *<)
