Here are some shots of Karen's new Legacy Turbo Saloon to keep my Impreza company on those long cold nights...











Plans currently afoot will include MY00 gold six-spoke alloys with Toyo Proxes T1-S rubber, and then front calipers and discs from Fizz's MY01 WRX (Now he's got those monster HI-SPEC things fitted).

Thanks go to Andrew Harper - Hope you and your mum like the piccies. I'll add more when the changes are made soon.

Thanks also to Fizz for his help in polishing the car and the 16 inch alloys.

Karen's very proud of her new car.

Regards,
Squizz.

I like it!

A nice car, that is more subtle in it's styling and therefore far more likey to upset the odd BMW and of course more likely to be ignored by the police!

Maybe when I mature a bit I might move from the WRX to the B4!

It will be nice to have some fellow company on the Scooby meets now, instead of being the odd one out

Had the pleasure of going out in it last night....bloody quiet compared to mine tho

Doesn't quite have the pick-up or slow-down that yours has though, does it!

Hope Sally enjoys her new car

The MY00 wheels are now on the car with TOYO Proxes T1-S tyres (only £79.50 each, fitted!!)

I'll post some pictures when I get a chance.

Hmmm, the interior appears to be lacking in colour - where's the yellow and black (Tigger) striped seats then??

That extending spotlight is probably so she can keep her eye on me...

Is Jonathan feeling creative? I'm thinking STi7 bonnet scoop, and a 22B style boot-spoiler.

Then again...It's rather nice as it is.

Can he get his hands on 2nd hand bits? Only it REALLY needs a decent back-box...On a budget!!

As promised, here are a couple of pics of the car with the new wheels/tyres. (Sorry about the quality, but the pictures were taken at dusk ).





I've also just removed the 'SUBARU' lettering from inside the windscreen, to aid the Q-car effect.

So...Anybody know which back-boxes fit the Legacy?

Regards,
Squizz.

Hiya Pete... I notice you've got a single larger exhaust pipe. Any idea of its origin??
