Mitsubishi is selling vintage cars, including a rare Lancer Evo

Mitsubishi's lineup isn't all that exciting these days, but just a few decades ago, the company had an impressive lineup of sports cars, rally monsters, and rugged off-roaders.1]

Some of these classic machines are now being sold by Mitsubishi's British division on on Thursdaywww.autoauction.co.uk.で開始されたオンラインオークションを通じてそれらを提供しているように、グラブのためにアップされている

In all, 14 cars are from Mitsubishi's heritage fleet, and most of them have right-hand drive configurations because they were originally delivered to the United States. The fleet includes vehicles dating back to the 1970s, as well as authentic 1987 Shogun (Montero in the U.S.) 2-door first generation, 1992 3000GT, 2001 Lancer Evolution VI Tomi Makinen, and a special 2008 Lancer Evolution IX MR FQ-360. Icons included. [There is also a Lancer Evolution IX Group N rally car, which won the 2007 and 2008 British Rally Championships with co-drivers Guy Wilkes and Phil Pugh. Needless to say, none of these car names are still in production today.

The Evo VI Tomi Makinen is particularly special. Only 2,500 were produced starting in 1999 to commemorate Finnish rally driver Tomi Makinen's four World Rally Championship titles at the wheel of the Evo from 1996 to 1999. This one car was even signed by the man himself.

All cars will be offered without reserve, and each lot will be staggered to end on time until the final day of the auction on April 30.
