Question Legacy GTB - how difficult can it be.....

to find one of these damned things with a manual gearbox for sale. I can find any amount, all ages and specs with auto boxes. My budget is £5k'ish as it's a winter runabout. So far I've found two for sale in the UK - one of which I would buy but the sellers being a bit 'funny' and it's 600 miles away. I've even considered importing one. Anyone know of any for sale - anywhere in the UK?

Saw it on Autotrader. Your right pretty rare in the manual form. Good luck mate.

This is the one where the sellers being a bit funny - not the agent selling the car, he's been fine, but the chap he's advertised it for isn't getting in touch with folks that are interested. I'd happily travel 600 miles to buy this one but it doesn't seem to be that simple

Kevin, it seems that less than 10% were manual in Japan, so defo rarer.

Hope you find one you like!
