1997 Mitsubishi Legnum VR4 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Rocket ship"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake disks may need replacing soon due to lead foot.
Water pump and cam belt replaced at 100,000ks.
General comments?
Mine has all the badges removed, so that nobody know I've got the fast model.
There are multiple models of Legnum in New Zealand; this is the one you want!
Faster than a Subaru GTB, and more room too.
Before this I had a GT25S R32 Skyline; it was good for skids, but the Legnum drives much faster and won't let go!!!
Had to GROW UP, sold my skider and got a 206kw family wagon.
