    Car Description

    Car History
    For the last 4 years the car has been the 3rd or 4th vehicle in the household and hasn't had much use, hence the mileage is quite low. It gets MOT'd each year and then the occasional run in nice weather, enough to keep it ticking over. This is also the reason now that it must go. I've included links to old threads below which relate to the car, a little search will show more similar threads i'm sure.

    The car has been well looked after but it is showing signs of it's age now, photo's shown below. The car has been on a few trackdays, mainly club sessions at Japfest not full days, it has always performed faultlessly and has always had check-ups before and after.

    Usual Type-S spec with beige leather interior with walnut trim and a nice big moonroof.

    Private plate has already been transferred, the car is now on a T plate

    Modifications.
    - 2.5" stainless steel cat back exhaust
    - BC Coilovers
    - Evo Brembo brakes front & rear
    - Evo 8 alloy wheels with good tyres
    - JVC double din DAB head unit with 7" DVD screen

    Other information.

    Bad bits
    As shown below, some small rust bubbles on the drivers front arches and laquer cracks on the drivers door edge.

    New photo's taken just now.

    Exterior
    Rust bubbles on the top edge of the drivers side front wheel arch, the leading edge of the drivers side front wheel arch and cracks in the laquer on the leading edge of the drivers side door. Towing eye cover isn't on the car as you can see, but it does come with the car and is undamaged, currently sitting in the boot.

    Interior
    Slight wear on the drivers seat bolster as shown. Car will also come with generic rubber boot mat and hard plastic Mitsubishi boot liner as shown in the photo.

    Having driven the car a bit this morning after dad dropped it down to me last night there are a few other bits I need to mention.

    - One or both of the front ABS sensors need to be taken out and and given a clean up.
    - Air Con isn't cold. It'll need regassing.
    - Rev counter works intermittently.
