Call that a car? The minimum is now 284bhp if you want to keep up.

Tuesdays not good for me. Otherwise OK at the moment.

thanks for the text heads up m8, I'd have missed this post
ALL DATES good for me so far, so book away please, just need plenty of time to book the day off.
Off to the stelvio pass in september, from monday 5th sept to monday 12th sept, so not available then. Otherwise I'll be up for another run round curborough any other time.

No not a Seat Mark but it is European, still looking at Evo 7's as well, Shame Subaru brought out the bug eye or that would be the first choice can afford an Sti7 but dont like the looks.

I like the STI7's - am looking at them at the moment. Not a fan of the regular bugeye but with the WR headlamps and styling mods the STI is much better looking imo. I could also go for a regular blobeye WRX though depending on how the test-drives go when i get round to them.

Remember Andy, the evo needs servicing every 3000 miles and has a tendency to go through a clutch every 10000 miles so its not going to be cheap to own lad!

Oh and put me down for the 22nd September too, although it is the day after my birthday! Hopefully will have my new car before then...

Graham

servicing is every 4500 but the 4500 is only oil change in engine and diffs. Bigger service every 9000. As far as clutches I have been reliably informed from several sources clutches only go when ether they have been tuned and the clutch has not been updated or they have had a traffic light Grand Prix at every traffic light!


Missy C. No its not a Porsche

No I think the guy that now owns the garage is a !£$%&*!£$

So would not touch that one with a barge pole!

It would be nice to have the time to go out and look!

The Evo is still favorite at the minute but I need to scare a salesman first! as I have not driven one yet.

Just FYI Andy if you are considering a renault V6 then have a proper look at www.cliosport.net

The Mk2's are great but it seems like the Mk1's were a different proposition and not nearly as good to drive.

Also remember you will get french build quality which is one of the reasons why I am looking to change mine.

If you want to talk about it then you can always mail me or give me a call.

Oh and surely you could almost get an 03 STI with the money youre looking at spending?
