Gambit Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Could always put something on the facebook page for you too, if that would be any good to you ?
CraigFG Posted September 17, 2013 Author Posted September 17, 2013 Could always ask on the face book page for you too if that would be any good to you ? Sure yeah that would be great.
Gambit Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Ok mate no problem, happy to help if we can. I will email the Admin for you see if we can get something posted up on our Facebook wall hopefully we can help :D
Gambit Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Ok done. I've Pm'd Tlag And Bip. And Emailed the Admin Steve for you. :D
Tlag Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Hi, just got this. Would loved to have helped but all our legacies are JDM twin turbos. Unfortunately, we are also away in France for the week too. :( 1
Gambit Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 :( No problem mate I can't think of anyone else that has Legacy's in Coventry :( . And hope the weather is better there sucks here :D. Just had a look Steve's posted it on the Facebook so hopefully someone will step forward :D

Gambit Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 You can email him here mate [email protected] Be great if you could an episode I would watch for sure :D
CraigFG Posted September 18, 2013 Author Posted September 18, 2013 Sorted we have a Legacy now - Thanks for all your help guys very much appreciated. If you know of any things to look out for regarding a buyers guide then I'm all ears! Cheers Craig 2
Gambit Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Thanks for letting us know Craig :) And again I would say Tlag would be the best man for that. He works with them and repairs them for a living. Don't want to give him a big head but know by far more about them then anyone else I know ;)
Jay762 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Yup Tlag is your man - and he is in the Cov area
Gambit Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Hi, just got this. Would loved to have helped but all our legacies are JDM twin turbos. Unfortunately, we are also away in France for the week too. :( Some body's not been reading the posts again ;)
