Brads Introduction

Hello everyone,

My name is Brad, I am 21 years old and I am located close by Preston.

I currently own a 2014 BMW 1 Series and just recent made the step into the Mitsubishi world and bought a 1993 Mitsubishi GTO. Unfortunately for me the car was a non runner but I got a really good deal on it!

I’d love to hear from your guys some general faults to look out for and things to keep an eye on while I am working on the car. (Its running now however I am taking things off it and cleaning up the underside)
I do have some issues and parts that I am looking for but I will create a new thread to keep things clean.

Hi @Fitzsim ,

Welcome to GTOUK :+1:

I grew up near Preston :joy:

Looks like you have some work to do on that car - good luck.

FYI - the club is operated on an annual subscription model with cost of ~ £20 p/a. With this you will be able to access all the technical areas of the club as well as display car on the club stand at the various shows we attend throughout the year.

Cheers guys,

I’ll have a look into membership shortly.

Thank you!

Welcome on board Brad. Thanks for posting up about your car.
As James, our Club Secretary has said, you have some work ahead of you. However, there really isn’t anything that can’t be done/repaired on these cars, but sometimes you may need to dig deeper into your pocket to do it.
Good luck with your journey ahead.
Did you manage to get insurance cover ok?

Hi Mike,

The vehicle isn’t currently road worthy so its SORNed.

I have managed to get some decent quotes all be it still very expensive about the 1.5k area.

Brad.

Good for you, Brad. That is a pretty decent quotation…well done!
