Yep, i've gone and bought an evo 5! Obviously nowhere near as nice as my 2k was but hey.....gotta change sometime!
I was driving the evo last night and it's simple awesome (i've used that word a lot today but it IS the best description!) and the acceleration is phenomenal. Ok so it's a harsh ride due to the coilovers and the brakes are noisey as hell as their grooved and floating but it's still a fantastic drive. I LOVE IT!!!
Oh, it's a bit loud too so i apologise in advance to all my neighbours in Dundee, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness

Cheers

Nice one James!

I'm still trying to shift the Golf so that I can join in with all the 4wd turbo fun!!

Where did you sell the RS2000? I think I am going to resort to the P&J next weekend as Autotrader has come up with nothing

Seen the Evo when we were at the Old Mill Jim. Really nice looking car.
Shame the RS had to go though, yours was the nicest one i've ever seen.

Enjoy buddy !

Spanpody,
Yeah it'll be nice to meet up with a likeminded evo owner.
Steven RW (silver makinnen)and myself are going to AVA sometime soon for my car to have boost upped a bit and we'll be there in our cars if you're anywhere nearby? AVA's beside glasgow airport if you didn't know already.

Cheers
James
