Hi all,
Was just informed by my boss the other day that i'd soon be issued a company car of my choice(w00t!
). My first option would obviously be a Galant, but being a tradesman, the extra storage space of a Legnum would be perfect as a sedan boot isn't quite big enough for my personal hand tools.
However, being a work vehicle, i'm concerned about reliability, i can't have a car that would break down regularly as i'm the head of a crew and my daily presence is not negotiable(If i'm not there, the job won't get done, period).
Do legnums have any reliability issues that could make them an unsuitable choice for me? I've been told that they can blow transfer cases frequently, however the guy that told me that was trying to sell me a Toyota Caldina, so i don't put too much weight in his words. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as i look forward to officially joining the VR4 community soon!
By the way, i do plan a bit of performance work, but nothing too extreme.
