well, it didnt take me long to get bored of the volvo, so im looking at these! iv got insurance quotes for a very reasonable price. the evo's im looking at has about 80k on the clock, recent import. not overly too much information.
im really interested, so help would be great! i know there is the lancer forum, but i like the knowledge of people from here.

any engine in the evo's before the evo 5 suffer from a problem called "crank walk" which means easiest way to fix is use evo 5 bottom end

Look too much like protons but so under-rated handling and performance wise.
My bro had an Evo2 for a day and it was pretty quick,shocked us both tbh.
And the recaros in them are comfy as fuk.

Riddled with problems. Better off with a pulsar, celica gt4 or sapphire cosworth
