OT, FS: My low mileage Evo 8 MR FQ-340

Apologies for the mostly off topic post but any proceeds will be honourably spent on my Fury

hobbsy. ive had an evo 8 and although not a 340 it was awesome. do you think if on track you could lap the fury as fast as i dont seem to even close in mine. my old evo seemed more grippy and faster in a straight line than my fury is!

Very tidy looking motor! If only my commute was 5 miles and not 50!





I love Pinto's, even if i did get mine from P&O!

It would depend on the track, off the line being 4WD it's obviously got way more grip and once you know how to launch it takes off like nothing else.

On a "power" circuit then yes the Evo. On a wet day the Evo would be easier to live with clearly. On a tight circuit in the dry then a Fury would be quicker. A lot depends on the driver and tyes I guess.

If I had to choose the consumables bill... Fury would win every time. I didn't track day the Evo but I know it would munch stuff a lot quicker than a sevenesque car.
