really like the look of these cars...only owner i know said its a bit juicy, but didnt establish what engine, and as with most jap cars the interior was a bit disapointing. Estate looks fairly enormous.

Was that me? Had the legnum, very small fuel tank, filling up near every day  ::) good 4x4!! did about 18mpg  ;D
aaaah no not that pikey wagon ;D ;D ;D

something like this i think....?

Ahh! A VR4. :-* Got very tempted by one of them myself a few years back. Made the sensible decision in the end, though.

I don't much like the shape of his dyno plot, though. Talk about all or nothing. :o

2.5 V6 24v with twin Turbos and 4wd. Only 276 BHP. You'd hate every minute of it. Oh, and it's 200 Kg lighter than an Omega too.

They wanted over £300 for a coil pack. ;D

Fortunately I sourced one considerably cheaper elsewhere. Also fortunately, that is the only part other than consumables that that car has needed in 117k miles.
