Did you just say you'd have a 4?

Is this one of the signs of the apocalypse?

I’d rather have an Evo, than a fake.

4’s are still the runt of the litter, rest assured.

I’ve only seen this in one Evo, my old mans 6 Extreme. Must be made of unobtanium.

😂. Got it from a lad in Europe.

Reminds me, I found a really clean Evo 6 knob the other day. They worth ebaying yet?

Depends what one it is. The original ralliart black snooker ball style ones are worth a few quid

Yes.

Blue stitched GSR worth maybe £75.

Red stitched TME one, double.

Can I have a close up of the silver rear brace and text please?

That’s the rear brace I’ve got and I’ve not previously known what it is.

The pic is jacked from somewhere else but it’s the ralliart brace, I have that in mine. Want the front one but they’re hard to come by now

2000 MITSUBISHI LANCER EVO VI - GROUP A RALLY CAR for sale in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

This has been transformed from a standard road car with an incredible rally build to Group A specifications, and a fantastic Tommi Mäkinen tribute livery.

collectingcars.com

Now this is cool. (Not factory, but still good.)

 

[gavinf91]

Bad choice of wheels & tyres for Monte Carlo 🙊

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Weird livery to choose for a gravel car that's for sure. Nice car though. Just needs for cards lol

 

[Silent_Scone]

The Monte Carlo "edition" was just something Kirkham and co came up with in Dudley I'm not even sure it's really a real thing lol

TME Monte Carlo Edition #2

First and foremost would like to thank Pete (Peterwickett) for being such a pleasure to deal with. Pete is a top bloke and I can honestly say hes a credit to himself. The car was as described and Pete went above and beyond to assist me covering every aspect of the car and is a true enthusiast. I...

Yeah not that, he means the ride height and wheels for the Monte Carlo rally... (looks wayyyy better)

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

He should have put it in New Zealand livery. Think Tommi won NZ in '99 and would have worked better with the gravel spec.

Yeah I know, but I was talking about the above lol

I’ve got a 1:18 scale model from that rally and it’s tarmac spec. Never noticed in 20 years 😂

This is a mate of mine:



Vids a bit long but he's a funny guy. Off out in it this weekend which will be my first time out in an Evo of any kind - looking forward to it.

Will sub as I’m all for some relatable car content. He needs to lower that background track though tell him.

Just watched the Car SOS episode with the Evo IV. I know they don't get much love on here, but I would happily drive this:

I was a big fan of the 4. Had a few of them back in the day. I actually think they’re a better looking car than a 5/6 done right. Shame about the engines (but then most have 6 engines now)

Said all along, the later 8/9 have hints of the 4 in it. Everyone gets wet over the 6 but I think the 5 is the pick of the 4/5/6 evos. I had a 4 myself originally and went from a 4 to a 5 but still think the 4 is a good looking car. Still has a huge road presence.

Lovely, RS2 is the perfect base for an Evo!

(No AYC either)

 

[jameswrx]

Anyone seen an RSX lately? I had one years ago and seemed like the perfect Evo 6 really. RS bits with nice seats & leccy windows

 

[gavinf91]

Proper unicorn that, 1 of 10.

Unsure of the difference between RSX and RS2 tbh, think they're mostly the same!
