Swap my FTO for a Scooby etc
Looking to swap my Mitsubishi FTO GPX MiVEC for a Scooby, Pulsar, Early EVO etc.
Here's the info on my car:
It's a 1995 M reg in black with 72k miles in near mint condition (doubt you'll find one in better nick).
It's a very rare manual version (1600 made worldwide), meaning a good second and a half off 0-60 times over the auto/tiptronic versions.
Just had a service plus all the belts changed (cambelt, alternator belt, power steering belt) plus tensioners (cost over £300 in December).
17" Tarmac matt black alloys with toyo proxes tyres cost over £800 (Done less than 300 miles)
ITG cold air induction kit (cost £90 fitted in December)
5Zigen Cannonball full cat back exhaust (cost over £600) with stainless decat (cost £90 fitted last month), still have cat for MOT.
Momo Race steering wheel (cost £170 inc boss)
Camskill Drilled front discs and EBC redstuff pads (cost £280 fitted last month)
Push button engine start
Kenwood 6.5" touchscreen widescreen double din headunit with built DVD player and remote control (cost over a £1000)
Kenwood ip500 iPod adaptor (cost £85)
Alpine tweeters fitted into front doors
Chrome deep dial rings (cost £40)
Toad Ai606 cat one alarm (with paper work)
I've just had the roof re-done costing over £200. You may or may not know, but the roofs are the one place FTO's can start to go. The roof has been totally stripped, treated and resprayed. There are litterally no marks on the car except for 3 tiny car park marks. My cousin works for dentmaster so may get him to remove them, but in all honesty you're hard pushed to notice them.
This car would be ideal for someone looking for a fast car that's a little more economical.
Power is between 200BHP and 220BHP now that it has the de-cated aftermarket exhaust and induction kit fitted. The sound from the V6 engine is sublime and always turns heads
Looking for a straight swap or cash my way, I'm not looking to put cash in.

Thanks for the info guys.
I know little or nothing about the auto wagon models. What's the 0-60 like on these compared to the manual versions, and what's the top end like on them (even though I know yours is still restricted)?

whilst uk cars are cheaper to insure they generally suffer from rust and have much higher mileage (uk roads for you), I suggest you look on these boards for any information you are unsure of before comiting yourself to any car, I can assure you danny's is a minter though

PM me with an offer if you like.
