A true driver’s machine. This 2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII MR FQ-320 is a meticulously maintained example of one of the most celebrated performance cars of its era. 

With 73,000 miles and just four previous owners, this Cool Silver Metallic Evo has been subject to a no-expense-spared mechanical restoration and underside refresh, ensuring it is as sharp and capable as the day it left the production line.

- Dyno proven 409bhp

- Uprated intercooler

- HKS Super Dragger 3-inch exhaust system

- HKS induction kit

- HKS blow-off valve

Recent Restoration & Maintenance:

This Evo has undergone a comprehensive underside restoration, with the chassis stripped back to bare metal, repainted, and sealed. Brand new OEM Bilstein dampers and Eibach springs (sourced from Japan) have been installed, along with new hardware and ancillary components. 

The braking system has been completely refreshed with new discs, pads, and brake lines, while a full set of Yokohama tyres have been fitted. A full service – including engine and gearbox oils, coolant, brake fluid, and AYC fluid – has also been carried out. Over £7,000 has been invested by ourselves to futureproof this Evo for its next owner.
