It might be faster, but we'll all overtake it as it pulls in again for fuel

and think of the time we'll make up while it's in for yet another

service

The Evo IS the quicker car, but at what cost. We all have our reasons for our preference of the Scoob. It is for (slightly) different reasons you buy an Evo. Similar tasks, different approaches.

It indeed looked shít.

You undoubtedly couldn't call that a sorted car straight out the box, absolutely no way.

Very disappointing to watch.

think youll find that the service intervals for the MR and the WR1 at both 7500 miles now......the EVOs had been changed for the UK market to 7500....

so its pretty even steven.

what sounds nicer though eh??

I think it was obvious that the Evo was going to be quicker on the track. I was just suprised at the understeer they seemed to demonstrate on the WR1. I can't get my STi to do that!! They even suggested the Evo was understeery (word?) as well, and I don't think I've ever heard that before.
