Evo for me mate... I had an Evo8 and I loved it. There isnt anything in the ford range at the moment that would steer me away from another one. The only thing I dont miss is the Evo fuel gauge... Im sure you can see it move. lol... But to be honest, if fuel costs are an issue steer away from them.

Servicing can be a costly if you take them to Mitsusushi... Mine went in for a 27K service just before Xmas. They phoned me up and said the front wiper blades would need replacing. As I was such a valued customer they would give me free fitting... Still came to £69 for just blades. They also said the discs and pads might need changing in the near future...Just to replace with the brembo discs was just a smidge under £1600.
Personally I wished I had taken it to a specialist garage as a lot of mitsusquishi dealers are also citroen. It was unerving when I took it in for another service and the mechanic walks out in his best citroen overalls telling me he is going to do a bit of work on my car... the first question is " is it turbocharged "!!!. Doesnt fill me with confidence to be honest


I do like the focus Rs though, nice cars.
