Category: Large Family 
Price Range: £20,400 to £27,400
Roomy, reliable, sharp handling, kookiness factor, anonymous styling.
Anonymous styling, low ground clearance for off-roading, dated plasticky cabin. No diesel option.
The Legacy may not look like anything special, but it's a very accomplished all-rounder for motorway cruising, family load-lugging or even fun - take your pick.
The four-wheel drive system is helpful for staying on the road; standard kit also includes ABS, though no traction control or other electronic driver aids. The airbag count isn't quite to German standards, but driver, front passenger and side airbags are now standard. No head or curtain 'bags as yet. Recent improvmeents have brought improved seatbelt pre-tensioners and ISOFIX child seat mounting points; H6 and Sport models have a Thatcham Category 1 alarm, not that Legacies tend to get nicked much anyway.
