Advice on buying evo 6

09 June 2012 - 01:57 PM

Hey guys,

Currently looking at two evo's for sale. Since budget is limited, I have found two that I may be able to get at a good price since a little work is needed to be done.

Evo 6 - needs a rear diff. Would it be worth buying a car needing a rear diff and how much would this cost?

Evo 6.5 - has a gearbox oil leak. Owner says that it requires removal of transfer case to replace lip seal. Anyone know how much this costs?

What are your thoughts on buying these cars that need a little fixing?

Cheers :)

Repairable writeoff - should I buy?

Hey all,

Currently looking at an evo V that is a repairable write off. The repair seems to be done fine, was on the passenger side from front guard to the door. Front bar lines up ok and paint is matched ok. The rest of the car is SPOTLESS, not one mark. Interior is very good condition and most importantly, the engine and electrics are fine. It's done 58000km and the rego for about 1.5 months. Car has dvd player, exhaust, bov, turbo timer and that's it.

Haggled down to $10k. Question is, should I buy it? Never bought a repairable writeoff before as I have always been hesitant. This seems to be a good buy. What are your thoughts?

Hi all,

New to the forum. I currently drive a 1997 Galant vr4 which I have been trying to sell for the last 2 months. Looking to buy an evo 3, 5 or 6 as I'm bored of the auto. Hope to learn a lot on here :)
