The Mitsubishi is going to have to go. After a few days of talks etc with my Mrs we are going to have to go for something more family orientated that can tow… ( I know!!) Details are below… I have just been to a garage ref part ex and they are getting back to me Monday as he needs to make a few calls as he has no idea what its worth
Mileage coming up to 115k does get used daily and will rise… I average 24mpg and live 4 miles from work!

Known issues
Cruise control intermittant so seems like a vacuum issue

MOT til Sept 23rd 16
I have been replacing as much as possible with original parts and some very discreet upgrades. namely the wheels and slightly more agressive bonnett vents. Original bonnet bumps included in sale
I’m including everything in this sale as I want the car to go to someone who has the intention of restoring it to the standard that I have been.
Every spare / replacement part I have will be included in the sale of this.
£4700 gets everything all my spares and extras… This is literally a no expense spared car
please be advised the eurospec bill alone was £2300 so if you think what you could get through Ebay and then the potential spending you will need to do to make it anywhere near road worthy could potentially be astronomical and you could purchase this several times over.
Active aeros are sticking occasionally, air con could do with a regas
Quality HID kit installed
Lazy eye kit easily removed no wires needed cutting
Full brake refurb by big red
I have had the car fully striped down in terms of skirts etc… all work has been completed by body and soul auto works, coated in raptor (they paint this on the bottom of green laning 4x4’s) then re painted… I would put money on it this is one of the most solid 3000gts on the road if not the most… Even imports are starting to show grotty sills if they haven’t been coated all the work has been completed on this
I will see if I get any interest through the forum although this maybe short lived depending on what is offered part ex…
I may have missed some things so will update as and when I remember!
