At least, that&#8217;s the year specified by the RDW. This model was produced until 1995. Since the car is original Dutch according to the RDW, it must have waited a while for its registration back then. Other than that, the RDW reports no details. Although, the Subaru has been with its current owner since 2007. That&#8217;s secretly quite a long time too.      <\/p>\n<div class=\"galery galery-0\">\n<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"cursor: pointer\" data-src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AutoRAI-Gespot-Subaru-Justy-1.2-Si-ECVT-1-1600x1200.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"galery-0\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AutoRAI-Gespot-Subaru-Justy-1.2-Si-ECVT-1-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-small size-small\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><i class=\"fa fa-search-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"cursor: pointer\" data-src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AutoRAI-Gespot-Subaru-Justy-1.2-Si-ECVT-2-1600x1200.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"galery-0\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/AutoRAI-Gespot-Subaru-Justy-1.2-Si-ECVT-2-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-small size-small\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><i class=\"fa fa-search-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>The Subaru Justy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>What kind of car was the Subaru Justy again? The first model entered the market in 1984. It was a model in what we would now call the B-segment. The Justy was a completely new addition to the Subaru lineup, filling the gap between the even smaller Mini Jumbo and mid-size L-Series.   <\/p>\n<h2><strong>First-generation Subaru Justy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Subaru Justy was technically a kind of enlarged version of the Mini Jumbo. Among other things, the front doors were even completely similar. There was a choice of a three- and five-door hatchback. The engine range was different, though. Whereas the Mini Jumbo had to make do with two-cylinders, the Justy got a 1.0- and a little later also a 1.2-liter three-cylinder. Drive went to the front wheels as standard, but in good Subaru tradition there was also a four-wheel-drive version. Shifting was done with a five-speed manual transmission.      <\/p>\n<div class=\"galery shuffle galery-1\">\n<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"cursor: pointer\" data-src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Subaru-Justy-1-1600x1063.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"galery-1\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Subaru-Justy-1-640x480.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><i class=\"fa fa-search-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"cursor: pointer\" data-src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Subaru-Justy-2-1600x1200.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"galery-1\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Subaru-Justy-2-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-small size-small\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><i class=\"fa fa-search-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"cursor: pointer\" data-src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Subaru-Justy-3-1600x1141.jpg\" data-fancybox=\"galery-1\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Subaru-Justy-3-360x270.jpg\" class=\"attachment-small size-small\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><i class=\"fa fa-search-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Subaru Justy with Dutch transmission<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In 1987, an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission was added to the lineup: the ECVT.

A variant based on the then Suzuki Ignis followed in 2004 under the name G3X Justy. In 2007, Subaru switched to a Daihatsu Sirion as its base. After some years in between, the Justy name was reintroduced in 2016, this time only in Japan and for its own variant of a kei car from Daihatsu.     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Subaru's are not really rare in the Netherlands, but they are mainly the older models.
