50/50 for me at best

I won't be applying for anything until I know at least a little more about Betty. I certainly hope to Logan.

Nothing for me yet. Plan to get rid of all cars and start again but don't know when or what with.

Anyone want a Dax Rush or Mazda RX8 or Escort or Volvo V40 or Citroen C5 (with blown turbo) or Scoob wagon shell?

The Dax is too nice to use properly and a cage would ruin it. It's a great road car for weekend trips or toodling off to a nice country pub on a Sunday afternoon but I don't care for that sort of thing. Plus it's just been taking up space in the garage since Nov and won't be coming out until the roads are salt free in March.

I've fallen out of love with cars in general. I was getting so desperate, at one point, I even considered your Evo.

All fair points apart from the last one:leaving:

If you are selling up, I would advise if you want a fast car to do some sprints then go drive an Evo and see if you like them..... I think they are good cars. And seem to hold together a bit better than equivilent Impreza's!!!!

There certainly is a lot worse cars out there than an Evo!!

I'd sell mine to you Gerry if your genuinely interested! And if your worried about the Fancy rear diff taking away the pure driving element then just swap it over to a LSD!!

Nice one MIke, I'm looking forward to you chasing the Porkers, the bloke who had teh CSL used to be pretty close to them so I'm sure with yourself behind the wheel you should be up there!!
