Question

Just seen some brief info on this looking for a dog carrier (wagon) with more space than an impreza to replace my 4wd. Any one know anything about them and how much?

Not sure what they cost in the UK, but I can say they are rather good Actually, one of the best bang for buck vehicles about imho.

I drive a sedan, but the wagon is excellent too! Same as a B4 bar the ARBs, and the rear obviously. A couple of choice mods will see you well up there with the go fast cars, doing it more comfortably, too.

Check out http://www.lumine.net/subaru/legacyb4/index.html

Sign up for the mailing list - there are plenty of UK members (mostly B4s, but a GTB or 2 as well).

The e-tune 2 is really nice - more suspension rigidity (not sitffer ride, stiffer components), better isolation, stiffer steering box, etc., etc. No downsides vs. the older cars.

Cheers.

Was considering one of these as a replacement for suzy, as the civic was getting a bit small for maggie (ever growing weimaraner)

belive E-tune is sequential twin turbo, about 280ps, which aint bad. So bascially a bigger version of a impreza Wagon (what i have) as said, a few mods and it'll be a real Q car.

I have a B4 which is the 4 door version of a GTB. I love the thing. Very fast, very comfortable, well spected, and penty of room. Get one you will not regret it. I am in the uk so if you want to know more ley me know.

Those E-tunes look very nice indeed - I'd be tempted myself if I hadn't just bought a new car to go alongside my Impreza Wagon.

I was recommended Iain Litchfield as an importer - I think he charges something like £23k for the E-Tune, and here's his site:

http://www.litimports.co.uk/ - some nice pics on there too, although since they look like Subaru promotional pics you may have already seen them.
