Found this evo 4. Guy has lost his licence and needs rid of it. Very low price thinking of buying it for some fun and selling on in few months.
Just want to know what to look for on them.
Cheers

I think the big issue with the 4 is an issue with crank walk, fairly common problem so mayve already been sorted but worth looking out for. Apart from that then just the usual checks as they're fairly old now
Yup crank walk and AYC issues were the biggest issues on the 4, nice car otherwise, I was going to buy one back in 2000 but ended up with a new scoob instead
the modifications alone are in excess of what im asking for it!

Evo5 head and turbo
And they throw rods well !
Mates just fitted a rod jobbed 7 engine in his 4 after chucking a rod at about 310bhp.
Also rotten rear chassis legs are a massive problem on the early evo.
I had an evo4 few years back,great car and as above ya they give alot of trouble with the crank. most of them that are still around rarely would have the original engine. I bought mine with the engine in trouble so fitted evo6 block and swapped everything else over. car never gave me any trouble,but they're very heavy on petrol.
He asking £2400 for it... Thinking buy it run it for couple months.. Bit of TLC and could make a decent profit
which model is it and age / miles / history? got proof of the power? my mates bro's said had mods then when we pulled it apart to fix it was not there,
he sold it for 1800 quid on a p plate , was a tidy one too
They're worth nowt though unless they've got a rod job or stroker.
I'd say its over priced and if it were rust free and as stated id say £1800.
Also 4's don't have brembos either.
