Both well speced cars & are worth ££££ Thats the thing with Evo's when you spend £ on the right stuff they seem to go up in value. At the end of the day though they still need a buyer. When & if i sell mine it should bring good money as it's an MR {unlike the one above} with everything Cosworth. It will never bring the money ive spent on it & will carry on spending on it thats just how things are when your a pratt I mean a petrol head.

I changed the oil just before we went to the Ring. I changed it again when we got back. Every 1000 miles on road use. When i get it on track it will be changed after each one. I get quite a discount from work so why not, it only takes 15mins & even the original Mitsi filters are cheap
