Simon,
I hope to have some pictures this week. To give you some more history, pending the pictures; the car was imported from new by Lockyear Subaru (Mid-Sussex) and supplied to a local company director who commuted daily from Horsham to Portsmouth, motorway miles in the main and I don't even think the boot and rear seats were ever used as they are completely unmarked. I purchased the car last April and added 6k to the mileage (eve's and weekends only). The cambelts were changed as part of the purchase price at 88k and since then has been meticulously serviced by Gatwick Subaru. It may be easier for me to send some pictures as an e-mail attachment, if you are willing to let me have your email address.
If you wish you can email me direct at clive.vaughan@gb.unisys.com
PS The Sccobysport centre and back box sounds superb!

Any chance of some more info about fuel? Do you run it on Optimax and do you use an Octane Booster each time you fill it up?

I only use Optimax. I've never found the need for an Octane Booster. It's quick enough without!

Sorry to hear gotta sell it.

Looks to me like a GTB Limited, identicle front bumper to mine, and this is only the second one I've ever seen, mine being the first.
Rare look for a leggy.

Check out this thread for alternative looks.

Twin roofs aswell? As I can't tell from the photo.

Hope it goes to a good home

Mark

Mark,

You're quite right, it is a GTB Limited! I've only just made the connection between your comment and the badge in the front valance mesh grille! You have to look hard though.

As for sun-roofs, it has none, climate control ensures fresh air.

As for it going to a good home. The silence is deafening. I would have thought that the Impreza bubble has burst and people would be more inclined to opt for more of a "Q" car like the Legacy. I wouldn't like to say how quick I have been in this car on the net, but suffice to say an Impreza would not loose a GTB Legacy! Plus we would be sitting comfortably in comparitive luxury, behind UVB Privacy Glass! I think there would also be no question as to who plod would pull over first!

Someone out there can bag a brilliant car here. This car is in A1 condition and deserves a good home and a keen driver!

I am happy to dicuss the price with any serious enquiry.

Angry

M20 a few Sunday's back. Holden HSV and Murcielago in convoy! Most likely a car magazine crew on way to photo shoot.

Should I hang back and be sensible or have some fun? Well it would be rude not to!

After an extremely good look round, proceeded to unleash all 280 bhp! Not sure which moved faster, the speedo or the fuel gauge!

Backed off and cruising at a steady 85-90, Murcielago dropped at least two gears and went passed at warp speed with an appreciative wave!! Holden followed through seconds later.

It's days like that, that make it all worth while!
Just a shame it's got to go. Pending new employment, I shall return to the Legacy fold!
