Seems pretty reasonable to me Dave, good luck with the sale.

[Subaru ETA]

thanks mate

[Patryn999]

Come next pay cheque and if its still on trademe it might become mine Haha. Would it be much of an issue if it stayed at your place a few days after I bought it till I could fly up to get it?

Would buy something in chch, but its nicer knowing that the car is owned by someone whom cared for it.

[Subaru ETA]

i dont mind mate!

Just a quick question, how long till I'd need to replace the plugs? I've read this can be a bit of a mission

It is minor at best! Takes maybe 1.5 hours.

For someone who's done it before maybe. For your first attempt it might take longer depending on how mechanically minded you are and if you don't make any f**k ups along the way (like putting everything back together and then realising you've jammed the throttle cable under the intake manifold).

[bradc]

But the point is that it isn't a reason to not buy a car!

[Ryan]

Nobody said it was He/she simply asked a question about when they'd need replacing.

i have just replied to your question on trade me - i have been away sorry!

the plugs and rocker cover gaskets were done at around 120k. the rear bank has platnium plugs in it.

[Patryn999]

Cheers, Just emailed you.

Also to bradc - it wasn't really a decider its just something I was curious about. Would prefer to fork out the money to someone on this forum whom I know will have treated the car nicely!
