Before I bought my MY99 way back in 2001 it took me months to find a DBM Wagon with AC.
The Subaru dealers I spoke to back then said not many people went for it as it was a costly optional extra.
I was lucky to find a DBM Wagon with AC, Electric windows all round, 6 CD - CD player and one careful lady owner. Apart from a few knocks on the side of the car, it was immaculate. I still miss it almost 5 year later
