I love those.. well, not that one specifically - it looks jacked up on those silly wheels and I'm not a fan of that particular era Skyline.

A nice R34 Stagea GT-R conversion would be good, though.. but a tad expensive for a load lugger!

I like the "performance estate" concept. My mate has a Legacy GTB estate, proper bit of kit. I also like the Legnum VR4. Oh, the things I could replace the Omega with if it A) doesn't plod on forever, or B) it was worth anything to sell...

saw this thread and started looking at related estates.....

Quite taken by the Blitzen legacy estates.

Not sure that I want to do the grey import thing, but they look really good.
Quite impressive bhp for 2 litres. Look big too.

I'm still waiting for the Euromillions win so I can import the VXR8 estate (in a rather large garage of other stuff, for sure.....) ;)

250 BHP and £2,500?

Why not get one of these brilliant bits of kit for loads less :-* :-*

Can get them much cheaper than that too, picked one up for £700 on a '52' plate last week, the noise, power, and the amount of people who think it really isn't that fast  :-* :-* :-*

I went to Germany at the start of the year. I never knew they did them and for the first time I saw a Mitsu Evo 9 estate. Proper Evo too, not just a lancer.

Yep, a V70 T5, they sound great, are good load luggers, and are lovely cars, with one of the most comfortable set of seats I've ever sat in  :-* :-*
