I dont remember seeing you sat next to me in it

Mr Orange

I personally would keep the saph. if its as good an example as people say then it will always be worth a good amount.
Yes evo's are excellent cars, they drive well and many people on here will sing its praises. fast, reliable etc.
If you dont mind the road tax shafting, how much you use the car will decide if you think its worth paying.
I may respect its abililty, but i would never buy one as they leave me cold. something about them just doesnt tick all the boxes for me

Absolutely spot on I have had a R32 gtr,2 imprezas and a m3,but still keep coming back to the cosworth brand I am now thinking of selling my 3 door for something a bit newer,but know i will regret it as its a mint example.

regards mark

purple_fiesta

what do you want, a really fast reliable common car, or a nice weekend car for playing about with. id have a saph over an evo if it was just for weekends and shows/meets!
RS's are special evos just arnt.

Why do so many people use PassionFORD.com when all they do is bitch and moan about Fords? ???? fuck off to MLR and suck each other off on there, leave this place to ford enthusiasts..

Yes I have got 2 Cosworths, Yes I have been in Evos, NO I don't want one.

Bought an EVO and i very much ever doubt i'd want to own Another '4x4' Cosworth they just don't compare not for fast road use!

I'm more than happy with my Evo it goes very very well and is far more enjoyable than the saph where i live

i found with the evo's ive had that after a few weeks you find yourself wanting something else..........hang on i find that with every car ive had.............forget what ive said as its more than likely just me!

Paul Eggleton

Oh contrare, it's passionford do what everyone else has done and buy jap or german!

baba

whats the point in that lol???
how do you think your mates saph would cope against a 450bhp evo????not very well i wouldnt imagine.

i love cossies and miss my escort like mad but i doubt id get another!!!i to had blinkers on when i had mine and they also went with the car.

id say evo mr 340 in gunmetal grey without a doubt!!!!

turbo_3dr_tommy

AndyBrew

I don't care what you say no rice burning tin can is going to be "purring" along at 180mph Evos are great cars but their not that good ffs

Harris.

Pointless going on about the speed and the way they handle anyway, theres cops and camera's every where


So im sticking with the 3 door and my gf's saff as there aint as many about

erm a 450bhp saph would beat a 450bhp evo in a straight line. granted the evo will around bends but i prefer straight lines..

iv driven both.. and i love my saph.. feels more of a car then the evo.

iv got that much love for the cossie badge that im building up a mean escos and looking for a minty mint 3 door

Tangodeltasierra3

Prefer straight lines ? are you real or what, wouldn't we all prefer it but it dont work that way, see you in the hedge bottom lol...

Tonks

i went to an evo 9 and its just a better car simply. dosnt have the nostalgia of a cossie, and i dont think you feel so special in one. But its 15yrs newer technology and it shows. simple mods got mine just over 400bhp to

hello everyone, i bought matts saff ,and have to say the car is absolutely the bollox.everyone that sees it loves it even the scooby and evo friends i have .the spec is awsome,as is the paint and the interior[i will get some fresh pics up soon].however i bought it for summer use with maybe 1-2k a year and would probably find it hard to use as a every day car.this is my fifth cossie and mark my words it will never ever ever be sold.i would like to take this oppurtunity to thank matt for selling me this car and being a top bloke,the car was as describedwhich is all u can ask when buying a car.best of luck mate with the evo as they are a awsome car and hope u enjoy your time with it[ps the saff will not be for sale in 6 months when u crave another rs lol.

Rod-Tarry

Not so, the saph may win at Brunters but under road conditions the EVO's shorter gears would see you chasing a dot in the distance im afraid.
The saph is now a near 20 year old outdated icon the EVO is where its at as regards a fast road car. Im too old to change now but the EVO is a far superior car in all respects

thanks very much for those kind words james glad your enjoying the Saph it is a top car

As for the Evo its in a different league as i use it nearly everyday and its just so much easier to live with + mine is only 1 of 2 gunmetal Grey MR Evo's in my local area so it not like theres loads about.
It hasn't yet failed to impress me it handle the B-roads around here far far better than the Saph even did or even would, so as a drivers car it exactly what i want, the only time i'd get back into a Saph is if it was a hugh power 2wd then i might be tempted back

Asturias

The same could be said of an evo trying to keep up with a new GTR,the game is aways moving on.
