Not just saying this with me having just bought an Evo but, I honestly don't agree with that one bit!! The P1's seat base is just a kinda wavey shaped pad, whereas the seats in the Evo's are a much nicer looking and better holding conventional bucket seat design

Ok, since it's between a P1 and a 7 GSR it would probably be after a 7 GSR if it was for an excellent point and shoot ROAD car.

If it was between any Scoob or EVO, it would most certainly be a Spec C. Have driven all other variants at some piont apart from a IX GT, imho nothing comes close to it for what I want.

All imho.

Just for the record.... Newage Scoob engines / transmission are far from chocolate (whereas SOME classic versions may of had their problems). I was only talking to Mike Rainbird about my Scoob at TOTB, and he explained how much he has tied up in his transmission (more than I have paid for my entire car mods in total) and even because of that, he still does not want to take the risk of something failing during standing starts (so wont do them). A standard newage scoob box and diffs have no problem with accepting 450-500+ bhp (and relevant torque) on standing starts.

Mike, the pillar pod was £45 + vat. This was what worried me to begin with, whether it would obstruct my view, but it doesn't not in the slightest. I am well chuffed with it.

I'll take a pic later of where I have the control unit fitted.

SECS,

Have you got torrets, as you seem to be continually spouting the same thing all the time on this thread.

Perhaps you could shout a bit louder as the deaf git over the road from me probably didnt hear properly.



Better still, perhaps you should do what Bruce Willis did and put a sandwich board on at the next big Scoob gathering with the words on it saying "Scoobs are Shit".

Bit of a price difference there though, You can pick a decent Evo 6 up for around 10.5/11k, I havent seen a decent 22b for less than 20k, havent looked recently but I bet they havent dropped below 20 yet.
You took the words right out of my mouth Matt, if you had 22b kinda money to spend on a car you wouldn't buy an Evo 6 -well you could do I suppose and have 10k to spare

Without doubt it would be the EVO. I test drove both before buying an FQ-300 about 8 month ago and it was the business. Really quick, superb handling and ultra reliable. But got bored and bought and Escort Cossie. Rule Brittania !!
