Hello,
I'm new to these forums, so a little bit about me: I'm 23, own a GTti and GTxx (Daihatsu), also used to own a Starlet GT and am a Moderator over at
www.toyotagtturbo.com.
I require a real mans car now.
I've recently been looking for a car capable of towing my race car (GTti) and trailer, but also something thats a little different and can be enjoyed. The Galant / Legnum VR4 estate models catch my eye, they seem to offer a whole lot of car for the money you pay.
1) What is the difference between models 1996 - 2002? (Box changes)
2) I see some for £2700 and others up to £3900 a similar specification - why?
3) What reliability issues / prone failures are common?
4) How difficult is the auto / triptronic to maintain? Should I wait and find a manual? (I've never owned an auto before).
5) Parts - being a less common car I assume these can be expensive?
Anything else?
I thought insurance may be an issue at 23, but I've been quoted £620 comprehensive with my girlfriend on the policy. (Her being in the police force bought it down by £260!)
Thanks in advance.
