Samber 3-Way Dump 4WD, 2Hi-4Hi, EL Gear, 5MT: the short version

Subaru built the 1990s Sambar unlike anything else in the class: the 658cc EN07 is an inline-four rather than a triple, and it sits behind the rear axle instead of under the cab. That puts the engine's weight over the driven wheels and leaves the cab floor completely clear. Subaru offered it carburetted, fuel-injected and supercharged across the range.

It shows 69,076 miles on a gauge originally calibrated in kilometres, which puts it near 111,200 km. That sits in the middle of the band Sambars of this generation generally arrive at.

What the specification means

A factory dump bed is a hinged, reinforced deck with a hydraulic ram beneath it, operated from the cab or from a lever at the side. For moving soil, gravel, bark, feed or spoil it halves the labour of the job, and on a kei chassis it does so from a vehicle that parks in a normal space.

This band covers the serious work specifications — heavy-duty and power-take-off driven dump bodies, scissor lifts, and the four-wheel-drive chassis with low range that go under them. These were expensive vehicles new and they have held their position.
