Do you know what's weird? I took them off yesterday lol. Yes they're real .

What's funny is the moment I took them off, my mate saw the car for the first time and said "are those Rotas?"

Big sadness.

Put stickers back on, but make sure they're straight.

Haha! Nice.

Having no stickers is probably better than having wonky stickers

one way to make your real wheels look like genuine rotas.

My TE-37's had straight stickers on them, quality control must have gone to pot with the Bronze wheels!

LOL.

They've been re-powder coated in Japan. they are originals, though. I checked the inner sides

That Evo V is just the business. Nothing more to say about it than that.

a quick snap of the undercarriage whilst I put the flaps on

Sweet mother Mary.... :eek:

I hate you, and I hate cars with undersides that look like that, they make me feel bad.

I’d be scared of taking it out on anything but a bone dry day that has been preceded by a few dry days!

Conscript · 25 Sep 2020 at 18:46

Yeah, I don't think I could bear to drive something so pristine.

gotta put those running in miles on

. It is 100% a dry weather car only, though!

Can spot a bit of rust just there..

More interestingly, what's the wire-wheeled car next to it?

Mark 2 Jag I think.

Correct, got a v8 going back in and it's being converted to manual. A lot of metal work going into it in. It's a friend of a friend, can get some more info on it at some stage.

Car is spotless. Just think of it as a brand new Evo 5. 20 years of happy motoring till it needs redoing again

Nothing beats driving around in a rally homologation special unless all you do is motorway miles.

This is probably one of the most incredible things I've ever seen on this forum. Just, wow.

You sir, are winning.

randomshenans · 26 Sep 2020 at 15:08

Agree with that. Holy cow that is beyond beautiful. Love the cleanliness of it and the wheels are perfect. I've seen so many people online getting EVOs lately, it's like a sign...!

randomshenans · 26 Sep 2020 at 15:11

Picked this up yesterday along with 10 kilos of class As to bosh out!

wanted something bigger than the Evoque but really like the Evoque. Really like the shape and with 3 kids and a family paddle boarding / skiing hobby it’s perfect.
