Here are a few images of my Hasegawa Legacy GT Touring Wagon, or as they were known here in Australia - Liberty RS Turbo Wagon. Some details:
Paint is Tamiya TS-38 Gun Metal over grey primer, plus TS-13 clear.
Wheels are from a Tamiya 350Z, heavily modified.
Discs from a random Fujimi wheelset.
Thule roofbox from Fujimi's Garage and Tool Series.
Home printed "RSTRBO" numberplate.

looks quite nice.
great quality, in focus pictures.
Only two things: the wheel/tyre combo seems a bit too big,
and the exhaust tip is too thick to my eye.
but the masking, paint application, overall feel is just right.
Good one!

Thanks for the comments guys.
sileightsix - I agree that the exhaust tip is too thick. It was literally the last thing added, and I think I did not give it the attention it deserved. I am happy with the overall look of the vehicle, but the wheels are big.
SCORPIONFB - the glass dropped after I had installed the body on the chassis, and superglued the wheels in place. I needed to superglue the wheels for strength, but it means I cannot get the body off the chassis to fix the window. It is only particularly noticeable from the front, so I attempted the hide it a bit with the "Subaru" decal.
Cheers,
Grant.

Nice job, with the roofbox on, it looks like someones heading down to the Snowy Mountains.

Thanks for the reply kanedge - that is exactly the look I was going for, having spent some time in Thredbo over the years. I was initially going to make some 1:24th snowboards and/or skis, but I ran out of inspiration. Still might one day as I have other Thule boxes and some Impreza Sportswagons....
