lol yeah, 60 mile round trip for me too. I tend to drive really steady, with no fast accelerating (unless required) and stick to 60mph on the motorways to save petrol. oh i turn the air con off too haha.

Thats a right bargain mate! edit, I notice its only 48k mileage. Although, the mpg he quotes as 21-22, I'd have expected a little higher, suggests to me that he's been using standard ron95 petrol. Hopefully not supermarket gunk.

I cleaned mine on Saturday. its dirty again now :( I have to use mine for work, costs me a bit but i can claim 52p per mile. Covers half of my monthly fuel bill though and i love showing off the Subaru :)

Personally I'd go for nothing less than shell vpower. i tend to go out of my way a few miles just for a tank of Vpower.

oh i see, thanks bud,

Thats a banging price for 4 alloys and winter tyres! @Sandspider, I guess they'd fit, however, I thought the spec b legacies have 18inch alloys? these are 17's, so it might look quite a bit different.

Oh i see, so the bolt kit would be a better option than the bushes? I gave Revolution a call yesterday to see if they'd fit the bushes. Waiting for a call back, so will find out if they are willing to fit the bolts instead.

Ah thanks Mr B. The rear camber on the left was -0(Degrees)42(Minutes) and the rear camber on the right hand side was -1(Degrees)34(minutes) (lol Sorry, cant find the degrees symbol on my keyboard) The front camber is off to, with the front left at -0(Degrees)23(minutes) and the right -1(Degrees)0(minutes). They couldn't fix the front camber, as it needed to be "freed off" and there wasn't enough time left in the day to do it. And the rear camber couldn't be done as its not adjustable on the Mk4 Legacies. The guy did have a look for the parts, however, I think he said that on Imprezas the rear camber arm is adjustable, so he was looking for an equivalent part for the legacy. I guess he wasn't aware of the whiteline KCA399 Rear Control arm - upper outer bushing. Although, Mr B. What does this part do? and how does it differ from the KCA 399 bushings? http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=88&products_id=2944

jesus wept, hope ya ok bud.

ah sweet thanks guys. I had a thought earlier. As Legacies do not have adjustable rear camber and only the drivers side rear camber is off. Could that mean that actually one of the camber arms (if you call them that) is actually bent or something along those lines?

Hi all, Went to revolution motorstore in Gateshead this afternoon for a full wheel alignment, had great service btw. The hunter alignment they use was really good, gives really accurate measurements of toe, camber, caster, etc etc. They changed the Toe alignments no problems. however, the rear camber on the Legacy cannot be adjusted. As its different to the Impreza chassis. So a replacement part that can be adjusted is required. They couldn't source a part in the UK, but suggested I check out sites in the US, as Legacies are very common over there. So, does have any idea what kinda part I would need to adjust the rear camber? Three links below are the only things that I can find, but im not really sure what Im looking at. Any help would be appreciated. http://www.larkspeed.com/index.pl?p=64581260K&a=i http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=88&products_id=2944 http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=88&products_id=3033

Went to Revolution Motorstore (http://www.revolution247.com/) this afternoon for my full alignment. Pretty good service, will do a full write up over the weekend when I get the opportunity.

ah yeah that figures lol. You guys get loads of snow up there.

Whereabouts in Durham is there snow? I'm near Hartlepool and no snow here :(

YAY :) this is me atm https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=zHXi8h8H2VA

got my full wheel alignment tomoz afternoon, excited... just hope it goes smoothly without any problems popping up.

Filled up with vpower again today. Noticed that on my way home I averaged 37.8mpg with the new tyres on. Previously, I was looking at 33-35mpg with the old tyres. Not bad eh. Will have to see how it goes over the next few days, but a few extra mpg would be nice lol.

Can I ask a question about that scoop. As you have a 1.5 non turbo engine and therefore no intercooler beneath the scoop. That scoop will allow airflow into your engine bay, im not sure what impact that would have on the engine, but wouldn't it also allow rain in as well? If you had a intercooler there, any rain water would be collected and drained away as per. However, as you dont have an intercooler all the rain water is going to go all over the engine bay? Potentially over electrics? But also isnt there a risk of the engine not drying and rusting? Feel free to disagree though.

That looks in good nick mate. I have to admit, I'd take a estate or outback over a saloon anyway. I do love my legacy saloon, its a lovely car to drive but I'd love to have the extra boot space of an estate and higher ground clearance of an outback. Maybe try and grab it for 2500?

Afaik, the R denotes that the engine is a VVT engine. I only know as my legacy is a 2.0R. Something like that anyway.

Is this it by any chance? http://www.usedcarsnearme.co.uk/area/yorkshire-and-humberside/west-yorkshire/cleckheaton/car/subaru/legacy/6837060 I have the same model and I couldn't fault it at all! Lovely to drive, average about 33-35mpg (using vpower) over a mix of motorways and town driving. I paid 2900 for mine with 85k on the clock, so that's not a bad deal tbh mate.

I've got Man Flu! Went into work today, purposefully coughing and spluttering everywhere, so if (lol when) I call in sick tomorrow, at least I've been by the whole team to be ill.

Just had my first shave for 5 months.... feel less of a man now. :(

Wow, that is !Removed! beautiful!

Went to Leeds christmas shopping on Saturday, !Removed! me it was cold.... Went to York christmas shopping today, !Removed! it was cold.... I've got a full blown cold now... ok will call it man flu.. I did see a few Subaru's though and even the missus has started noticing and pointing them out to me now!
