I'm so glad I've got a dash cam. I must get cut up almost two to three times a week and I only have a short 4-5mile commute to work. Most of the time it's idiots pulling out on roundabouts or not looking over their left/right shoulders and cutting me up.

My folks bought a new suzuki recently... turns out they don't like it... I said "well i did tell you to get a forester."

Nice looking motor mate, good mileage too. out of interest, how much are you looking for?

Just paid my car tax, 290 quid and i dont even get the little disk to pop in my window...

yeah will keep my eye out.

I always thought you couldnt put a scooped bonnet on a N/A car. As this would allow water into the engine bay... which would lead to rust?

Cheeky !Removed!. Get it on facebook and Uklegacy mate.

Yay i always get excited when i see a legacy:) Make sure you check the rear wheel arches for rust. And if its a twin exit exhaust check the y piece.

could always go for a 1.5Impreza mate, would be less on the insurance. (but probably still expensive). I'd imagine that you are going to pay through the nose for insurance on a 2ltr impreza mate.

any damage?

Just seen a neighbour washing his bmw with one bucket and a sponge. Hahah

haha I have no idea tbh. I'd imagine it would need a new gearbox+clutch and a whole load of other parts too haha

yea very dangerous mate. Found a brand new 3.6ltr tribeca engine on ebay.... gives me another crazy idea haha

bugger, looking at imports again... :( fancy a 3.6 legacy :)

I think i'm going to give mine a wash tomorrow :) then going for a curry in the evening. Fancy something spicy :)

I'm no car guru, so i'll advise the best as i can mate. 2006 I've got a 2.0R legacy and completely love it. Really nice to drive and the AWD is great in the winter and gives the car a nice solid/planted feeling when driving. If i was to get another legacy, I'd almost certainly get a 3.0ltr rather than a 2.0 or a 2.5ltr. The 3ltr is a 6clyinder engine and yes it is chain driven. Both the 2ltr and 2.5ltr's are not chain driven. I believe the 3ltrs are about 240bhp compared to about 165ish in the 2.0R's. Certainly worth checking out the service history. Oh and the 3ltr post 2006 versions are £480 per year in tax. The pre 2006 versions are £285 afaik. I cant comment on the mpg of the 3ltr's but it will run best on shell vpower or tesco momentum. in my 2.0 I tend to get around 35mpg the majority of the time. With the legacy's you have to watch the rear wheel arches(there's a lip that tends to collect **** and rusts). Also if the exhaust is a twin exit, you will need to check the Y piece, as these tend to rot/rust - easiest solution is to have a stainless steel exhaust fitted cost ya about 400-500 quid. - Unless its been done already that is. oh and I find legacy parts easily available, importcarparts and Ebay tend to sell everything required. There's a seller on ebay called Impartsb46 who sells genuine subaru parts brand new and cheap. Hope this helps. We have a couple of 3ltr members that I'm sure will be able to advise :)

Camping again this weekend, theres a few scoobs here, 3ltr outback, 2ltr diesel xv and a 2ltr foz xt... planning to pop along m say hello :)

Hi mate, Check ebay, plenty of breakers on there, im sure someone will have one.

I'd take it to a specialist first, get the suspension looked at and checked over first. You could take it to these guys in Buxton, up harpur hill way i think. - http://www.autotecnica-subaru.co.uk/ I've not used them, but i've heard good things about them. Ps, im from your neck of the woods :)

lol, Where on earth is Brid?

yeah mate, lovely. Needs some nicer alloys and a spoiler though :) Unfortunately, i dont think i'll be upgrading anytime soon. I've got a holiday in Cyprus to pay off and a wedding to pay for, then buy a house n have kids... lol she's got it all planned out haha

Yea, found a lovely red mk4 b4 blitzen. Will try and edit the link in (on my phone atm) http://www.goodmayesmotors.co.uk/used-car-subaru-legacy-saloon-1529

Ive been lookinh at legacy imports again. :(

hahah brilliant. You changed the cabin filter? that's worth doing, its only a few quid and easy to do.

I've got the same :)
