Default Any EVO owners ...........

I’m doing some contracting at the mo and a guy I’m working with wants an evo.

Anyway, he knows nothing about them and I only know about cosies so a couple a questions:

A) what do you think of imports?
B) any good evo forums you can recommend
C) any nasty’s to look for.


Thanks in advance

awesome cars to drive, streets ahead of ANY cosworth, can be expensive to run though and aren't too clever on fuel, just like a cossie if he's got the dough then go for it!!

beware of clocked imports though, very illegal in japan i hear but still gets done.

They ar great fun, as B8 said lancer register they are a bit slow on there to reply , different type of clinatele and all (sp)

Imports might have a problem insuring ,

AJ's TME is sweet and i obviously like my 8 TME will hold there value alot more though i think


mike

Oh servicing every 4500k and it is not cheap to run

Many thanks I've passed the info on, personally i think i'd be worried about an import if i was paying large amounts of cash out.

I'll let you know how he gets on
