Default Another one gone over to the dark side..

Gone and done it again - S2000's gone and wanted 4 doors and something the family can get in this time when I'm not having fun with it.

Shortlisted a hawkeye or highlighy tuned S4 bi turbo, or an Evo.

But a rather nice Evo8 caught my eye running some nice but sensible mods both to engine, suspension and bodywork with good mileage 2 owners from new and a UK.

Went to look at it today and just couldn't resist, one very well sorted genuine UK motor and forgot how well the Evo's perform all round. So yet another has defected to the dark side. Looks like there might be a couple of Evo's trawling about in here now, hope you don't mind.

Running 360 – 380bhp and 360 - 380 lb/ft torque

Still got the scoob and might sell it, but I'm tempted to keep it and juggle my insurance about and keep the scoob as a dedicated track hack. I've even thought about renting out the scoob for track events to others for a fixed fee, you break it you just 'AA' it back to me. ?!
