Also,on the evo`s,What sort of milage can i expect to get out of one if looked after,Before i can expect some troubles....????

And,Last but not least....What sort of milages should i steer clear of...????(I know lower the better....But is say 70k miles a little risky...????)

Hi Kevo and welcome

Good luck with the hunt for an evo, there isn’t really much difference at all between the evo 5 and 6 apart from the styling.

As for the mileage my evo 6 is running at 70k and I have had no problems yet. The key is keeping your eye on how well the car has been maintained

Matt

I would say it would be better to comfortably be able to buy a good 5 than push yourself money wise to buy a maybe not so good 6

If you see what i mean

To the site mate I'd go for a white V if you get the chance, apparently they're a little bit quicker!!
