Re: No. 087 EVO USA Auction

There are companies that will handle the shipping no problem, haven't checked recently but last time I thought about buying a car from USA it was going to be around 2K to put it in a container, which you would with this, rather than on a ferry. Once it lands in the UK you have to pay HM goverment 10...

Re: 182 - A20 OEV SOLD AT AUCTION

In answer to the above the point of non-compliance is the handbrake. Ford fitted 300mm discs and different callipers to the EVO and deleted the cable operated rear handbrake callipers in favour of hydraulic actuation of the rear brake callipers.
