really like the look of these cars...only owner i know said its a bit juicy, but didnt establish what engine, and as with most jap cars the interior was a bit disapointing. Estate looks fairly enormous.

Was that me? Had the legnum, very small fuel tank, filling up near every day Roll Eyes

good 4x4!! did about 18mpg Grin

aaaah no not that pikey wagon Grin

They wanted over £300 for a coil pack. Grin
