    This is my 2nd car to my van, never know someone on here might be interested!

    Well the time has come as I just don’t use the car anymore, don’t just over 1k miles in a year!!!

    Brand new clutch fitted so she drives like a dream!

    Now back to a standard plate as the personal one has been sold.

    Started life as a 2003 Evo VIII FQ300, but FQ330 upgrade was done by Mitsubishi, who also added the badges. Im now the 2nd owner.

    Tax till end of Sept
    Mot till April 2008
    Mileage is now pretty much bang on 20k

    Other options/mods:
    Metallic black

    Carbon Fibre Slam Panel
    Samco blue coolant hoses







    This lots all been fitted:















    Really is an awesome car and I’ll be sorry to see it go, but as I own a pub I just don’t really use it day to day, feel like im tearing the soul out of it by not using it!.

    According to a thread I stuck up a while back (http://www.lancerregister.com/showth...hreadid=137755) there were varying opinions of what I should ask, so as it has a fair old spec offers on £17k please. By all means make an offer, you never know!

    Based in Epsom in Surrey

    ***EDITED TO SAY*** Would consider a px but needs to be an estate, pref S4 Avant, but any estate is a possibility

      Well I am planning to sell both in the long run. Sell the Evo and prob buy an S4 Avant, and some cash in the bank (really wanted an RS4 but i've got other things to put the money to really), then I have something to cart the dogs about in so I can sell the van, just dont need 2 cars really

                Tbh after seeing how some of the s4 avants went round combe today me personally would go for a Rs2, you'd have been past them and off in the distance.
