Not a CSL :wanker:

My CSL fund kept getting spent on furniture and holidays (not by me) so I thought I'd get something in the meantime! :hahaha:

Evo IX MR FQ 360, standard except some AP 6 pots on the front.

I realise it won't be to most of your tastes but I like it!!

Awesome, how does it compare to an M3? Always fancied a grey or red MR320/40/60 then map it to 405bhp.

Surprised a young'un like you can get insurance on a ricer like that ;)

Cheers smac, almost CSL colour :-D

Totally different car as you would expect, sooo torquey and boost is addictive! Doesn't sound anywhere near as good as the CSL. Handles like it's on rails. Soaks up uneven bumpy off camber roads, which is where I tend to drive these days. Will probably end up mapping to ~400bhp in a little while when I start to get used to the power. :whistle:

Thanks mate :-D Insurance is surprisingly good, less than CSL was :119:

Yes you would have ended up feeling a lot worse than you already did :beer:

Was well up for Friday beers but this came up so you can see why I bailed hopefully, but will have to sort something out soon :beer:

Golf is still around for now - but planning on chopping it in for a Cooper S convertible (that's what the missus wants).

Mine is around 480bhp now, but selling the turbo and going for 600bhp.

The class Im in @ the sprints is rediculous. One of the lads clocked a 0-100mph in 5.35s on saturday at the blyton sprint:119::119::119::119::119::119:

Love Evos, had three now.. E7 GSR > E8 MR 320 > E9 GT

The GT was my fave, made 400/400 with simple stage 1 mods, absolute beast to drive and as it had the RS rear diff it was more chuckable. Unfortunately after being car jacked in one and broke into for another I decided enough was enough. I still miss the cars though, the CSL is great and a future classic but normal day to day driving the Evo would trounce one.

Good choice btw, great colour.

The time I got the lad in a headlock then my brain tried to punch him with my left fist in the face, I quickly realised that I couldn't :-D, so I pulled his head up and butted fuck out of his face.

As I was doing that to him, his girlfriend was trying her level best to pierce my skull with her high heel:119:.

I think I did a little judo move on her and her head might have hit the floor before the rest of her body did:whistle:

Where on earth did you get car jacked. I thought car jacking was just an african past time. So what was the story KPNUTZ. Where should one never stop at the lights (obviously Liverpool aside ;))
