JT 0 Posted October 10, 2005 i've just got my hands on the 15th issue of evo with there buying guide on the VR6 :D makes a good read and they only have very good things to say about the car. "i wouldn't share this information with just anbody, You're smart enough to buy evo so you can be trusted. The rest of this buying guide is just a smoke screen to deflect interest away from the corrado". they include a TVR S3, Clio Williams and Porsche 944 Turbo, the porker beets it to the winning posts but only from what i can see is because of the extra 50 horses it packs to be honest. The VR they use for the photo's is silver with the reg. L183 RWV anyones on here :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 10, 2005 Ah yeah I remember the "smoke screen" comment and also the write-up. Who did the right up, Jethro Bovingdon? I think he uses that phrase quite a lot. I was into Golfs at the time and didn't bother reading it, LOL! I didn't think they went back as far as issue 15, might order it myself then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ice White Socks 0 Posted October 10, 2005 I scanned in 3 full 6-8 pager VR6 articles from the mid 90's- some crackers in there as well- Just waitin on Andi who's gonna put them in the fast purple section (tactical nudge to Andi who I think may have forgot :) ) If anyone wants them emailing- just send us a PM as they are all zipped up & ready to send Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JT 0 Posted October 10, 2005 kev- i got mine from ebay as i'm prietty sure they've totally sold out of this issue, it was john barker who put it forward and yeah it is a good atricle. i have been keeping an eye on ebay for ages for one to come up and finally this one did..... jim what i'll do is just bring it down to stealth, so i'm afraid Dr Forinor you will just have to wait till then buddy.....

bcstudent 0 Posted October 10, 2005 According to the RAC vehicle check there's no vehicle registered under L183 RWV. So unless it's got a private 'plate there's a good chance it's history :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Forinor 0 Posted October 10, 2005 ....... jim what i'll do is just bring it down to stealth, so i'm afraid Dr Forinor you will just have to wait till teh buddy..... Unfortunately, I wont be going to Stealth, so I guess I'll have to hold out till someone posts it, or try and find myself a copy on eBay. Thanks anyway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JT 0 Posted October 10, 2005 i'll just leave it with jim so he can scan it in when he has time, i'm just a bit crazy with moving house to think about posting mags at the mo, so you will get to read it :D bc student- would be a shame if it's been written off but it does happen, i'm prietty sure my first vr k330 fec has been written off but i can't be sure.
