Compared to my scoob it`s

* Much much faster. (fair play to the scoob though it was only 265bhp non Prodrive Performance Pack Version) The acceleration is instant and never seems to stop.
*Much Much better handling
*Nicer ride (Had Prodrive Springs on STI)
*Built better
*Better Looking
*Smarter Interior

The last three really are just opinions, but there ain`t that much in that. But the first three are 100%. It just puts a bigger smile on my face!!!

Very very nice motor mate!


I wish I had the cash to get one! Love my Scooby, but would love an evo so much more.....

So come on, what are the bad points, it is nice to hear them as well? Compared to the scoob, what have you lost or missed since swapping.....

If you do not do the miles, are the the 6 month service intervals the same on a scooby and an evo?

Nice car BTW.

I got this second hand from someone on the MLR it`s a July 04 with 9000 miles. The service intervals are 4500 miles or 6mths whichever comes first.

List price is £31500 with the 340 upgrade chip. Got a really good deal!!!

I am from the Chesterfield area, but it wasn`t me as I didn`t get it until 5th Feb.

Things I prefer about the scoob???

*The flat four burble!!

Very nice indeed, great colour.

I'm so tempted to get an Evo next. I say cobblers to servicing cost, it's all tax detuctable anyway.
