Hi Everyone,

I am Suj from Birmingham, I graduated from uni doing Automotive Engineering, have been working for Jaguar Land Rover for past year.

I have always loved early Evo's (I to III).

I am considering getting one (if not now, then later down the line).

So on here to learn more about them and get any pointers for what to look out for when getting one.

It will be used as a second car, as I have a diesel for work (doing 400+miles a week).
Also plan to do trackdays and go to the 'Ring with fellow petrol head mates.

Hope I can get one soon and live a dream I have wanted for ages. :D

Thanks.

Thanks Craig, so true lol, insurance might be the only problem, I could probably buy one in 2-3months, need to try and get insurance down, have to see if classic car insurance will cover it?

Hello and welcome !

There are a couple early Evo owners on here that should be able to help answer your questions.

I do like the early evos with the wide arch kits fitted :)
