I love the contrast between a fast, big engined car that sets effortless performance and the brutal Evo :)


I agree. Keep both. Unles you have a driving financial reason to realise any cash out of the evo, I'd hang onto it.

Well, finally, the bodyshop has worked its magic and the car will be ready for collection tomorrow :woohoo:

Thats the good news, bad news is the size of the bill :shock: and also my mum has jumped in next, damaged the door on her car last week, so the evo has to look sorry for itself for a little longer :cry:

Don't take this the wrong way Poesy... I wouldn't buy a lollipop off Poesy. He has no idea about mechanical sympathy. The phrase "drive it like you stole it... from the Krays!" was made for him. :thumb:

Guys, guys, guys - no point buying a car that goes warp factor if you dont actually experience it :lol:

IMO, cars are bought to drive - HARD, dont want to stand around polishing or looking at it, know what it looks like, saw that from the brouchure, I bought it to be driven. Dont get the chance to get behind the wheel that often so when I do it tends to be fairly full on. If it breaks, sorry, when it breaks, you just have to fix it :wink:

By the nature of the cars though, you simply dont drive a merc, like you do an evo. The truth is actually that I still havent driven the merc at all :shock: but am hoping that may change soon.

Sorry for the Evo door :( . Nevertheless, I can't help being like everybody else and be desperate to see some photos when the AMG is ready :D

Well, finally the evo goes to the spray shop today at 3. Couple of repairs, front wing (courier due with the new one any minute now) and rear 1/4 panel plus a few extra bits and bobs to tidy up the paintwork and add a touch of bling.

Presently the car has no front bumper, no n/s front wing, no n/s sideskirt and no rear spoiler :shock: Actually makes me :( just thinking about it. But when you see it in the flesh :cry:

Be so :D when she's finally back to full shineyness again, cos despite all the others that have come and gone, she's still my favourite :wink: by miles...
