Well that's a 325iS Evo, not a 325i Evo. You need to be a weapons-grade pedant to run the wiki :D

i recently looked into an evo, a south african import. it will cost quite a bit to get the vehicle in standard condition and the main thing is that you have no idea on the history! doubt you will find one in the UK though. Ive gone for the sport instead.

Stick with looking for a sport, not that finding a good one is easy anymore but easier then finding a 325is Evo in the UK

It will be rotten scrap at that price, if you can even find one. People know sports are worth money as they break well

Me and Trev broke a tech 2 sport last year which had not run in 10 years and was rusty and fucked.

We paid £800.

Given that you didn't know the difference between a Sport and an Evo, why have you limited your choice to these two models? Why haven't you considered a straight 'i' or an SE?

Out of interest how did this sport get rusty from not being driven in 10 years ?
