Yeah, Subaru for sure. I think it may be a DL/GL. |

Leone here in NZ - not sure what the Aussies called. Later what to us is a Legacy is a Liberty to them. |

L-Series, not Leone. Leone name in Australia was only used for sedans. Actually, the L-Series name isn't quite right. This name was only used on some advertising material from 1985 onwards, as an umbrella term to refer to both the sedan and wagon. However, each had it's own proper name. This generation was never "officially" known as the L-Series, but this name was used retrospectively. The official names (appearing in brochures/ads etc.) are as follows: 1979-1980 - "4WD Town & Country" (or "4WD Town & Country Wagon"). Introduced November 1979. 1980-1982 - "4WD Station Wagon" (or "4WD Wagon"). Offered in one single trim only, with 2 rectangular front lights (one each side). 1982-1985 - "4WD Station Wagon" and "4WD Touring Wagon". The Touring was a new grade with a higher roof and quad front rectangular lights. It also offered an optional automatic for the first time. Note: in 1984 only, a limited edition "Sportswagon" was introduced as a third trim level. -- Last edit: 2023-09-26 21:27:38 |
