Description
1992 Subaru Sumo.. UK van.... which is in quite good condition as they dont seem to rust as bad as other Sooty vans.........
It has Switchable 4WD ........... And coil spring independent suspension all round and a proper separate chassis.
The engine is a 1. 2 three cylinder. fitted at The rear like a VW ... which is very smooth on the run and starts easily with plenty of power.
Its only done about 62. 5k miles......
Other good points are........ simple wind up windows, lack of modern sensors, no radio ( i use a transistor..) 5 speed gearbox, good heater, 2 sets of keys, original tools in their bag, plus comprehensive factory workshop manual.
Subaru 4WD vans have great off-road capability ( Look online.), ..... Also they are economical..
Im thinking the High top makes the van suitable for micro camper conversion.. Shes been on trips to Europe with the last to Switzerland in 2020 acting as a camper )..
Sumos have been sold in lots of different countries with different names both as 4wd and 2wd. ...... Ive put a list of other names used at the bottom of ad..
Japanese mini trucks / vans are quite sort after these days with lots being imported.. This van is a Uk van and not an import. she is listed as a van with widows on the v5 ..( I have the complete v5 with new keeper supplement ). ..... I have her taxed and moted 22/ 12/ 22 and insured with ( Agreed value classic insurance. £140 ) shes in regular use,..
Regarding past / Historic MOT history .. The sump HAS been replaced to fix an oil leak.
Some coolant pipes have been replaced ,..... The tyres were replaced and have very light wear.......
Some damage to the bumper HAS been professionally repaired ,..
These vans came with under sealing from new..
Theres no evidence of welding done or needed..
Ive noticed other older Subaru utilities have weak stitching on the seats these are no different..
Ive now got my late fathers Vitara so could do with selling my little Sumo as i dont need two 4WD's
Im 10 mins from either J26 or J27 M1.. 0 7 4 3 7 4 7 5 5 9 7
