Selling my mitsubishi Rvr as iv purchased a new car and haven't got the space to keep it any longer. It's a hypersport version which came from the factory with the aero kit, front mount intercooler and the larger td05 turbo fitted along with bigger injectors producing 250hp, Extremely quick car with the mitsubishi 4g63t engine and 4x4 drivetrain from the Mitsubishi Evo 1 2 3 cars. Its also a manual gearbox which is a bonus, most of the ones imported into the uk are autos. Engine and gearbox are perfect, it starts up first time every time with no ticking noises commonly found on the 4g63 engines. Gearbox is excellent with no crunches and changes smooth throughout the rev range. It's not a mint example and does need some tidying up. The roof has lacquer peeled quite bad, and the front bumper could do with a tidy up. The rest of the bodywork is overall very clean for the age. Also there is no rust issues, both sills and floorpan are perfect. It does also require some attention mechanically, after a recent inspection on my ramp at work, the front drivers side caliper is seized. I haven't got around to checking it properly but I have a replacement Evo 3 caliper to fit. There is a knocking noise that can be heard when going over certain speed bumps which is the front anti roll bar drop links. If you require anymore information or would like to view the car, contact me via pm. I will get some better pics of it over the weekend once iv given it a clean. It's got mot until October 2018.

This thing is so curse word cool. What's the history like? There isn't a huge amount of actual service history with the service book stamped etc. But I do have most of the paperwork and manuals from when it was imported from Japan. still have all the import documents along with some Japanese service history. There is a load of reciepts for parts it's had during its time in the UK, but no actual UK service history book showing stamps etc.

Sweet Jesus I've always wanted a manual RVR, fancy a swap? Ideally I'm after a cash sale, but if you have something that I'm interested in we could do a deal. What do you have to swap?

Just for info - the drive-train isn't the same as the evo1-3. The diffs, gear ratio & final drive are entirely different & (unfortunately) even rarer
Also, you might want to move the front number plate to stop it blocking most of the inter-cooler
Good luck with the sale

Still very similar and all parts and swap able. The reason i describe it as an evo 1-3 drive train is to help describe what exactly this car is to potential buyers. Iv come across many petrol heads who simply don't know what it is. Its much easier to explain it as having an evo drive train and engine. The front number plate was something i never got around to doing, doesnt actually affect performance. Or intake temps for that matter.
