Hi all, I finally found the Legacy I've wanted for some time. A white 05 manual BP5. That was 5 days ago. On its second trip around the M25 disaster struck. Almost certainly cambelt failure - to be confirmed today with subsequent damage report. No ones fault, the vendor changed the belt before purchase so possibly a faulty part or other very unusual reason.
So .....fantastic car in great condition now awaiting repair. Can anyone help with a workshop manual and a parts list as the garage doing the work needs help with this info?
Legacy - it was all going so well!

Initial exam shows cam belt ok so unclear what the problem is until closer look. Problem started with knocking from engine bay which got louder over 10 mile journey until car cut out completely. Engine turned over but would not start. When recovery tried, engine sounded as if it was spinning and cam belt failure was suspected.
