Gentlemen,
I have just joined your forum because I am looking for some advice.
For the last 12 years I have been driving a variety of Renault 21 Turbo Quadra’s - a family 5 seater, with four wheel drive, and about 250bhp (after mild modification).
It’s time for a change and only two motors seem to fit the bill.
The Legnum VR4 or the Subaru Legacy (am I allowed to say Subaru in this Forum?) In either case I would need to buy an estate, as the saloons have no folding rear seat (sad that this should be a consideration I know).
Now for the advice part.
I would like a manual rather than Tiptronic - are manual VR4s rare, very rare or rocking horse **** rare?
Do they carry a price premium and can you get the parts when they go wrong?
Lastly (and in no more than 5000 words), why is a Legnum better than Legacy?
Appreciate your help,
Richard.
