Well...I bought it

2001 Subaru Legacy B4 RSK - it's basically a saloon version of the GT-B.







I'll have to get some propper pictures tomorrow in the daylight. Was worth the drive oop norf though .

It's a 37,000mile B4 RSK, special edition Titanium colour paint, full leather & climate, imported from new and a big book of service history, reciepts, mots, tax disks etc.

300bhp, 4x4 - so a nice change from FWD. It's got a 320mm Brembo 4 pot (Gran Turismo) brake conversion, Bilstein Suspension, Hayward & Scott exhaust, a OBD2 display thing, secs monitor type thing, laser jammer and a few other bits like the gauges.

Well, I've been converted to Jap...sorry It's a lot more car for the money than can be found with a lot of Fords these days sadly .

Cheers guys. It's staying as is! It's plenty quick enough for me at the moment, just wanted a car I can just get in and drive....no fuss.

It was advertised for Ł7k Rhys, paid Ł6.5k

Andy, most you'll find are the auto tiptronics. There are manuals out there, and this is one of them. Could never own an auto car (well...maybe the new GTR).
