Good luck geoff, but one question!!!! WHY?? :confused:

I was walking back to the car this afternoon thinking exactly the same thing - the car is stunning.

But basically it's actually too nice to be used everyday - my lass drives it 5 days a week and is terrified of someone hitting it / kerbing the wheels / getting supermarket dents from other non caring ****s etc.

I would prefer to just have me using it - so i've decided to get her a cheap runaround and get myself another RS - I only bought this because I couldn't find an RS at the time. ;)

Guys - do me a favour - This is a FOR SALE Thread, not "I want your opinions on me"

So if your not interested in the car then don't post your opinions about me.

Thread cleaned up at Geoff's request.

Please keep all replies on topic please, the guy's trying to sell his car, not have a debate on the reasons why.

If you fancy an RS, I,d be looking at Bazza,s Tommi RS Monte, gotta be one of the most collectable EVO,s :smthumbup

Guys - there's lots more pictures if you click "my car" below.

You can see the upgrades i've done since i've had it:-

New wheels & tyres
Full Magnex exhaust from turbo back.
Calipers re-painted
Ralliart mats / flaps
Steering wheel
Cleaned engine bay right up.
Cold air feed to OEM airbox (from the hole on the front nearside of the bumper)
New Lash Adjusters so no tickety tappets.
Undersealed and waxoiled.
Locking wheel nuts.

It's running about 320bhp with the panel filter / full magnex but would certainly benefit from £500 on an ECUtec to take it up to 360 ish then the car would be superb

nice one mate ... give this car a bit more poke

and you being a canny driver will scare a few on track next year

you are already faster than the billy T's of this world ;) :crackup:

seriously (don't let it go to your head) on the few runs we have had over the summer no one knew your car was under powered

at no point were you off the pace

:fftopic:

i've had a lad called lee on the phone tonight about buying my EVO

he's a local guy from sunderland so with a bit luck the car will stay in the north east

so tesh can still have the 2nd fastest standard internal car in the region :crackup:
