Legacy Deisel in UK or Europe question

[urabus1995]

This question is really only for European members.

Does anyone have first hand knowledge of performance etc. of these wagons? Are there different specs available.? Would our UK model be different from a Japanese import.? I have a freind who is wanting to buy one, second hand and has asked me for some assistance.

My stepson lives in Japan, and for several years has been sending vehicles to all countries, mostly in europe. The vehicles he supplies though are more of the High spec modified race type cars for drifting and track use.

He did get me an excellent Legacy for a silly price , a few years ago.

I think that ,now, he is only supplying dealers in this country and so will probably not be interested in dealing with a private customer.

If anyone has any experience of either a UK Model, or an import, I would love to know any opinions of these vehicles. I know there are not very many UK members on this forum, but any info would be welcome.

He has found a couple , locally, but they seem to me to be very expensive, being second hand. Around £19000 for something that may be about 18 months old. I cant remember when they first appeared in the UK, but it does not seem that long ago. The new price is £22500. another thing that is a bit strange is that it is £2000 cheaper than the petrol version.
