not as fast as the scooby but a much nicer ride i think.

Smooth lateral curve and gears seem long, so smooth, not punchy.

makes a very nice change, good gas milage also. 18p per mile for scooby, 14p per mile evo. Cant go wrong.

Nice Car,

Currently looking for an Evo 7 myself, what scoob did you have before, as I test drove one the other day and it felt alot quicker than my UK classic.

Cheers Andy

nice

i think EVO ownership is closer for me know, i showed my wife a FQ-320 that was at a meet on friday night and she liked it. she hated the earlier versionsas 'they looked like they had driven into Halfords and pulled out with stuff stuck on'

if i had the choice on looks it'd be the EVO 5.

a mate has just bought a WHITE TME, looks stunning.

only time will tell when I go to the darkside.



hope your happy with it

Way way happy........ :-)

Scoob was nice but a little refinement is well appreciated.

I will the steroid power that was my V7, but it seems so easy to get $$$ US parts at great prices and the power i see the US lads are getting.

No wonder really.

Try em then buy em.

If there is anyone who knows Jonny personally, give him a pen when you see him next.

I think the only thing that put me off when I rode in one was the lack of sound... don't get me wrong, it was the most awesome, pant ****ting experience of my life with John at the wheel, but it lacked that lovely rumble. Can that be achieved?
