what they like? I heard they nicknamed em mini evos, got one coming in px today on a 05 I think


good sellers?

 

are they the 1.3 or 1.4 turbo's

mini evos !! fwd ???

 

Theres a lad near me with an Evo X front end on one, mapped up its about 200bhp i believe, 1.5 turbo, decent little cars

 

There's one round my way too, it's fast! The rest of it is pretty basic small jap though, so flimsy shit interior etc etc.

 

There not terrible
I think a few years ago their was a recall for the head bolts not being done up correctly
They suffer front link arms too
I've done a few rear wheel bearings
Other than that they were good little cars
Think the servicing is around every 10k

 

My father inlaw has had trouble free driving for 50k

Driven hard all the time


My only fault with the car is visability, the front pillars are bloody huge lol

 

Got it in last night I'm gob smacked what a brilliant little car

Driving position is perfect and it feels as big as a focus inside

Rear seat slides so can choose between legroom and boot room


Most importantly it fucking flys! Real kick in the neck on boost lights the wheels up

I've had great fun it's like a rocket go cart but still comfy and handles really well

Big thumbs up from me

 

They are great, as I said only bad point is the front pillars restricting view at roundabouts massively

But as you say really good fun
