    what estate??

    hi guys...

    i brought a 1.6 Audi 80 Avant from here, about 2months ago, all is well with it, but i miss the power.....
    so am 'thinking' of upgrading, will need to be an estate cause of the Dog have about 3-3.5k max as a budget
    any ideas?

    have been looking at some Jap stuff, but don’t know much about them anyone???
    these are the estates that have come up so far

    SUBARU LEGACY GTESTATE
    NISSAN STAGEA
    Mitsubishi Legnum VR4

    or i could stick to German
    passat
    Audi
    bmw
    Merc

    or the faithful Volvo Tank....

    any ideas people?
    the Legnum 2.5 V6 twin turbo sounds the most interesting so far, anyone owned one? what’s the running cost? insurance like im 26? maintenance? reliability?

    cheers ppl

    If you like the 80 Avant then surely the logical step is an S2 Avant?!

            91 S2 coupé - RIP
            98 S8 - Luxury barge

              legacy is fairly ok. no rocket in the newer ones. not sur eyou can get legacy b5 in estate. if so thats the one. ej20tt

              the other legacy on a turbo is the 2.2t. sohc though no cooler. home of the infamous 22b block.

              stagea is one big ugly mother. can be fast in gtr form. peopel think skyline and think rocket with technology. really its a jap sierra and the gtr is the cossie

              vr4 pretty tasty.

              jap insurance pretty crippling. all came about when the japs thought it would be clever to take on the insurance industry and say they would only supply full shells. insurance companies rule and the japs took a step back but a small hike is still in place to remind them of their stupidity.
