Default Evo VIII FQ300

Well, there's no point hiding it anymore...

Due to loss of license I have the following for sale...

53 reg Sept 03 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 8 FQ300

UK car

Dandelion yellow
10,300 miles
Full RalliArt service history
Factory leather / alcantara
Only mods are decat (original cat also supplied) and 18's
4 new tyres, only 400 miles on 'em
10 disc stacker, with REALLY ugly head unit
Cat 1 and Tracker

Balance of manufacturers warranty (20 months or so)
Purchased by me in September '04 (2nd owner)

Looking for sensible offers somewhere near £23k

Obviously not looking for a part-ex (got the wife's STi should I feel the urge )

Very reluctant sale of an astounding piece of metal.


Cheers

Thanks all.

If I could keep her for twelve months I would, no questions. But it's just not an option.

Unhappy Black armband day

Dude,

Thats just harsh!

I'll arrange a minutes silence at work as this is truly a sad day bro.

Good luck with the sale mate, I may have not just bought the FQ330 if i'd seen that sooner.

Cheers Pete. Thought about mentioning it to you earlier, but you'd already paid the deposit of yours

Oh well.

By the time I get me license back there'll no doubt be a couple of used FQ400's for sale.

(Just need shares in some dodgy insurance company and I'm laughing )

Surely your insurance will be horrendous after a ban on a 300 let alone a 400 or 500!!!

neat car!

had to laugh after watching Top Gear on BBC World tonight - there's Clarkson and the short guy raving on about the comparative merits of the new Aston Martin and the new Ferrari.

Stig then takes both cars out for the standard thrash around the race track and the two cars get ceremoniously posted to the raceboard.

And there, unannounced, further up the leader board is a glimpse of the entry for the EVO VIII.

So here's a car for 23k that beating the sh*t out of 2 cars costing 170k each

Magic !!!

Slight difference between that car and this.

IIRC they tested the MR320, which is a bit lighter and has a bit of extra poke.

Wait while they show the one with the FQ400 creaming a Murcielago (then getting hammered by a diesel Fiat somthingorother) Most amusing

Don't you fancy it as a project car? Free graphics as an incentive

BTTT.

I can personally vouch (if that stands for anything) for the love and attention this has had.

A sad loss to the WYIOC.. but we've stil got the owner, his wife and a STI to keep things on the boil until he returns....

Absolutley mint and the photos are copyright.. Dazza. The pink flourescent is courtesy of a warning flare and Sticky 'mincing' around it.. and you can see my WRS neatly reflected in the offside rear bumper shot..

Quality...

Are we approving of a fine, well looked after and cherished motor or a Pogo stick?
