Description:

You are looking at a very rare car.
This is a Mitsubishi D30 Eclipse Spider Turbo. It is a front wheel drive manual with a 4G63T engine as fitted to a Lancer Evo Turbo.
It is a Japanese car manufactured in the USA and only ever available in LHD form.
Made famous by the Fast and Furious films, many sold were coupes and/or automatics and normally aspirated.
This left the factory as a turbo Spider. Possibly the one one in the UK?
It was imported new to Austria and gained a TUV type approval there.
It has aftermarket wheels, eibach springs, an aftermarket body kit and uprated brakes. all this is properly documented with type approval
It was imported to the UK this year and gained an MOT in January. It runs superbly but is booked in next week to have a full belt service with tensioners as well as oils, filters and a new hose kit (not much wrong with the old ones, I was just given a set by the OCD previous owner!).
The oil is still nice and yellow and clear so it has had regular servicing.
The speedo was converted new to KMS but is now back to MPH. This was done for the MOT and is documented. The mileage is just over 100k miles.
The car is not perfect but a very clean example.
The candy red paint is great, the interior clean. The wheels are straight but would benefit from a refurb ideally.
I have ordered some wheel centres for it as well as a front badge.
Any serious inspection welcome, please feel free to email me or send me your number if you would like to discuss.
