Question Legacy B4 - what they like ???

After 5 years of scooby ownership I'm resigned to getting a bigger car due to me little nipper [18months] and a nagging wife . After spending lots of time trying to convince her that an Evo was a practical car I failed and have resorted to looking elsewhere. My attention has been drawn to the B4 [looking at a 51 or 52 plate]

Anyone have a experiences they can share. What are they like in comparison to a classic wagon and how do they handle.

With 280bhp and twin turbo I expect the acceleration is good.

I was REALLY impressed with the Legacy Spec B Sports Tourer (Normally Aspirated). was behind one yesterday in my Classic Turbo (decat mod only). Doing about 50, he pulled out to over take some slower moving traffic on a dual carriageway......

And was gone. I kept up with him (just!) - one very urgent car

Very good indeed So I'd imagine the B4 is even more potent.

Come and visit us here if you need to know any info.http://legacy.manxforums.com/forums/index.php?act=idx
I personally have a 1999 Legagy GT-B and think it's fabulous, and while Mog is correct that a Forrester Sti is fabulous, I would imagine that there is quite a price difference between one of them and a 2001 Legacy B4/GT.-B
