    Question Should I purchase a red legnum VR4

    Hi thought i'd register before I buy one !

    I've come across a nice Legnum VR4 with some very subtle mods - 18's, coilovers and large exhaust and what seems like almost every possible factory extra.

    but its in a ferrari red ! now this seems to be a very rare colour for these cars and part of me hates it and the other part says go for it and stand out from the crowd.

    for my business its great as i can transport my diecasts around to car shows in an in your face car but for the family cruiser i'm not so sure.


    what is your view ? should i go for red

    You can only be talking about the NewEra Imports car, can't you?

    It's a little overpriced, but it's got some good, tasteful modifications. New Era are famous for importing expensive, but top dollar cars -You won't get any crappy grade 3 rubbish from those guys. So if you like it and you think it's worth it, then go for it!

    yep, but i'll have the wheels resprayed a decent colour. they have a green manual one coming in to and i can't decide they are sending me pics of it.

    i'm tempted as it will fit perfectly for my business needs. and i'm sure i can get a few quid off as its been on there site for months.

    i'm just not sure i want to standout so much to the world. the last time i did that I had a handbuilt golf VR6 in raspberry pink and i couldn't go anywhere or dare speed as the rozzers new exactly where i could be found, and so could the car thieves !

    Looks a top quality motor mate - and from a reputable dealer too - if you can haggle them down to around the £7000 to £7250 mark I reckon it's got to be worth a go.

    Am I right in thinking it's a Super VR4 too ?

    i've no idea what the dif specs are !

    i was simply after a fast estate to haul stuff quickly to and from shows and we came down to 2 options the legnum or legacy, not fussed by the legacys looks so the short list is one !
    and as i'm selling "tuned" diecasts of mainly jap cars its got to be an import estate, just got to decide if reds the right colour.

    its not a colour id normally go for but everything else is what i'm after
