    Well that was a result...or two

    Hello all,

    I've been 'lurking about' on this group on and off for years....Had a few UK V6 Galants and aspired to a VR4..

    I've been involved with FTOs for years having owned about 30 of them and having 7 up my drive/s at present but love the Galant/Legnum too. So finally decided to take the plunge and was budgeting between £5-6,000 for one with main aim of finding one without a 'rotten bottom'.

    So a few weeks ago I finally managed to find a rot free PFL Legnum Type S in Trigger Mauve and grabbed it quick for £1340...so by my reckoning that leaves a few bob for fixing up...!

    Okay it had 'Big end knock' and avery tatty TAN leather interior but thanks to a very nice man on here I have a new engine and this weekend took delivery of a V6 MOT failure with immaculate Black leather so busy busy busy.

    If anyone needs any TAN bits or V6 shared parts give me a shout as I may have a few bits left over.

    Plan is to replace interior, swap out damaged engine for rebuild and going back in at some stage,

    Then probably a full respray. Been considering colour change to a modern metallic grey but Trigger Mauve is growing on me and would make life simpler (and cheaper!!).

    You will find the UK spec seat are a little taller than the JDM originals so you sit slightly higher in the cabin. Doesn't matter if you are less than 6 feet but if you are tall then you will notice it.
