My car is a Saab but it's made by Subaru in a Subaru plant... so it's either very good or very bad

Edit... oddly, after owning a jeep for 6 years and 250,000km the only mechanical problem I had was with the steering box... but that was causually related to the rock I smacked it off. Guess I beat the odds.

I'm guessing it has something do with it being a U.K. list.

Mine isn't even on the list.

My Jeep needed repairs like every other week. Mind you, I was pushing the 250 000 KM mark.

Im running a 96' Infiniti I30 and it still runs like a beast, mind you I've had to do several repairs when I first acquire it but everythings rock solid even after 10+ years of wear and tear.
