evo 8, one of the most expensive bit is the AYC, there is a valve/ecu that control it, you need to make sure thats not gone/going.

Drive slowly in circles listen for a wearing noise, make sure the gravel/snow/tarmac lights dont all stay on.

i have been looking onto these too, have you looked around http://www.lancerregister.com/index.php

worked for mitsi for 10 years so all i will say is service history make sure its had all the oils done and the ayc one done too plus have a look under it and check for any signs on it being on a jig  you would be shocked to see how many cars we had on ramps that had been on a jig but had no record of damage on a hpi check  .It was always the driver that ran out of skill and never the car  we had one guy in a 7 have us fit something that turned all the things that help the car stay on the road ie be able to turn traction control off and he lost it 3 days later  going over bridge did a bit of this 

and lost it and hit a bus  and ripped the front end off  he fixed it and sold it about 6 months later and the new owner will never know  so check check and double check for any signs of damage if you can but they are awesome cars

I've been looking at getting a Vlll FQ MR340.  Always wanted one but the leon is so cheap to run i think the running costs of the Evo concern me alittle 

A friend had the FQ400 and after a year it ruined him financially £££'s.

I can just pass another mates Vll 340 but in the twisties he leaves me for dead.

It would be my daily but i do very low mileage.

My friend has got an evo 9 fq360 by hks run out model and has had it nearly 3 years with no problems although he suspects the clutch will need replaced soon as they are very week as standard. He uses it as a family/everyday car and gets the proper servicing. He had an evo 8 fq260 before it which he owned for 3 years and all it needed was brakes and a clutch in the end.
I think you will be surprised of the pace of the evo compared to your golf, the power is more manageable and it uses it better than most cars with similar bhp.
