which is the best deal???????Non biased please ;-)

hello people a friend of mine is in a dilema, he has 13k too spend and has found two cars

1. UK evo7 51 plate in black 55k miles with full mitsi service history in very very good condition no mods apart from 17" compomotive cr's

2. UK scooby sti8 03 plate pro-drive 20k miles full history blue completely standard car both same money

Now I know its a scooby but they are good cars, so people be open minded as possible I know the reaction when the "S" word is mentioned 8)

As un-biased as I can, I'd go with the scoob for the mileage, but the evo for the drive.


Sorry, not much use I know!

On the serious side if the service history is all in order on the evo, go for the evo!!!

Put it this way - my mate sold his modded Scoob STi 8 for a standard performance Evo 3 RS and was knocked out........go the way of the Evo mate!

After having both Scoob and Evo i'd defo go for the Evo.

I had a brand new '53 STi Type UK with Prodrive pack, and kept it 9 months before buying the Evo

Lost a packet but it was worth it.

If I were you I would go and try out both and make your mind up that way, both very nice cars

Good luck with whatever you decide babes.
