Hi and welcome.

Great to see another Legacy owner.

Any info you need, just shout up. What bits are you after?

[notascubby]

Hi ya 

Need an exhaust, 97 gtb5 twin turbo, second hand mine has seen better days,  but getting bodged for mot

 

As for now being a fellow Subaru owner, was by luck! Had a s reg 318 with a year's mot lined up to buy for £1000

 

Then i saw her, across a crowded gumtree page, and fell in love, she had been parked up in a back alley and had no mot no tax but she came to life, and now I'm hooked :-)

 

Love the legacy
