man these things hold the road like nothing ive felt before, no more going round a round a bout full lock in a straight line for me!
minnnt 15-09-2007, 07:46:54 looks good matey! :D i thought you said you couldnt financially afford it? :D lol
MrTurner 15-09-2007, 09:02:39 Nice mate :) Enjoy, more stealthy than the Meggy though? Any mods planned or is it ust a case of keeping it serviced?
minnnt 15-09-2007, 09:05:49 keeping it serviced and keeping petrol in it! LOL!
donny_dog 15-09-2007, 10:21:39 wow. nice!
Dangerousbrother 15-09-2007, 10:35:42 very nice... thats my next mota 4 sure..
Micky 15-09-2007, 12:08:59 the services are only oil and filter changes so it aint so bad, the petrol consumption isnt much worse than what i got in the meggy on the 300 so its nout i cant handle, gonna go fvor a ssq valve, exaust, cai, and a re map, then al leave it at that am thinkin like, hopefully shud see some where in the region on 350 maybe more?
Thomas 15-09-2007, 17:19:41 I'd never have one as not my style, but I always enjoy them and much preferred over an Impreza. Well tbh I prefer anything over one of them.
A client of mine has recently got a VIII, in white. The FQ<lots> with carbon, etc. It's been at a tuners for the best part of 2 months - still not finished with the tweaking. I'll nag him for some pics!
Jon Seal 15-09-2007, 17:56:46 noooooo you should have got a VX m8 seriously. Nice enough motor like but not really that much different to the megane IMO. The VX would have been a real treat!
Casey-R26 15-09-2007, 18:30:24 amazing mate, i loe these to bits, dont forget to post some videos as im always jelous when i hear one fly past, You get it on lease of buy it ?

French Muscle 15-09-2007, 23:54:49 alright nebmx, how much are you paying on the insurance for that motor? and also how old are you???

denty225 17-09-2007, 11:36:30 I much prefer the 7> to the early rally slag looks. I was looking to swap for an evoX in a couple of years but after being raped of £270 to servive a colt mitsubishi can kiss my megs ass!
Enjoy it while you can affort it mate!
shinyautos.com 19-09-2007, 09:32:25 love it mate! You pleased?
Casey-R26 19-09-2007, 15:52:12 dave1971, just had a look at the photos of your evo 8 and it looked superb mate, how was the everyday driving of it and what was the costs of running it like, i can imagine it to be very high.
SaintDP 19-09-2007, 16:22:48 Love it mate. I would love an Evo.
meggerman 19-09-2007, 16:29:52 an R26 is like a fwd evo.
cant beat the real deal though, looks great.
Micky 19-09-2007, 17:51:25 well, after a few days of ownership, heres my thorts, only got 1 compliant, which is the brakes, they work fine, better than the meggys, but, i was told they were sorted as they squeeled, this problem has not been sorted, so thats gonna be goin in to get sorted.
had the car up on the 4 poster today, and the underside is immaculate like, very clean, all ball joints have litle play in them and all seems to be fine, de cating these things is a bit easyer as it litterally a foot of 3inch pipe with 2 flanges on, so am gonna get that sorted soon like, cant be much for that!
also has any 1 seen the stock dampers on these, the silver bit what goes into the damper housing thing, must be an inch thick, maybe inch and half, bloody massive!
miltage2 19-09-2007, 20:52:41 good choice, enjoy
Casey-R26 19-09-2007, 21:07:13 dont foget to put up some videos matey
