SVX mechanics in Madison?
I'm considering purchasing an SVX locally from a private owner and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a reputable and knowledgeable SVX machanic in the area who can give it a once-over before I purchase.
Thanks in advance.. --Wulf |

David Wray Automotive in Buffalo, MN. about 30 miles west of the cities. he is considered by many as one of the most knowledgable Subaru mechanics (including SVXs) in the entire midwest.

I go to the Subaru Dealership here in Rockford, IL. the lead tech for Subaru has a hard on for the SVX.

Hence why I'm looking for the guy in Rockford to have a pre-purchase check done. Mitch did the one on the Emerald that was local.. Kid had no idea of the condition of the car.. He saidit needed a few moinor things.. Came back with a laundry list totalling $1400 and the kid wouldn't budge on the price. Sooo.. Back to hunting. |

oh didnt see the rockford part. We could always go take a look at it, or have someoen else familiar that is closer. Still mechanically you could just hit thedealer up for a maintnence list and split it with the owner.
