What does it cost?
For This top-spec Legacy petrol model comes positively loaded with kit. The cabin is roomy and it has an automatic gearbox as standard.
Against Performance is uninspiring and running costs are high. The interior doesn't have the wow factor of some cars at this price, either.
What Car? says
You get loads of kit and an auto 'box as standard, but it's expensive for a Legacy. We reckon you're better off with a cheaper diesel model.

Buyer's notes
Target Price team says:
In most respects, the Subaru Legacy is a straightforward rival for the likes of the Ford Mondeo and VW Passat, but it's unusual because every version comes with four-wheel drive. Subaru's image isn't quite the norm, either, although this doesn't translate into superior resale values. Running costs are on the high side, too. Equipment levels are well above average, however – even the cheapest models have dual-zone climate control, automatic headlights and wipers, Bluetooth and an electric sunroof. The diesel version makes most sense – it's a stronger performer and has much lower running costs than the 2.5i petrol, which comes with a CVT automatic gearbox as standard. Subaru has a good reputation for reliability and owners generally have only good things to say about the service they receive.

Our pick of the range
Subaru Legacy Tourer 2.0 D S 5dr
For us, this is the pick of the Legacy range, blending a reasonable price with lots of standard kit. Some rivals are better value, however.
