Just seen one . It was emerging from an old peoples/ / sheltered bungalows area. I did a double take. Then I looked it up as I remember the trade joke about the Legend being so called because its existence was questionable. It was raining like the proverbial and my phone was inaccessible. Superficially it looked lovely and so sleek and aerodynamic compared with all the current hatchback on stilts genre.

Chap near me has a 3.2 Coupe, black, lowered on 18’s or 19’s. Looks great.

Yes the difference was the 2.7 Coupe was home/Japan built and didnt we know it eek I was an Honda tech back in the days of the Honda/Rover joint thing and it didnt go to well frown the 4 door saloon Legend was UK assembled and well build quality issues dont even get me started , water leaks , wind noise blah blah blah and not much better for Ballade and Concerto models sadly once sorted however they was OK just not OK Honda quality control that we had been lavished , the 24v single cam per bank motor however was a lovely silky smooth revvy gem cool
