About this car

This is a 2001 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII, a Japanese-market import finished in white with a manual gearbox and a 1,998cc petrol engine. The Evo VII was the first of the line to use the Lancer Cedia body, and it remains a favourite among fans of the rally-bred four-wheel-drive saloons.

It shows 60,000 miles. The dealer says the underside is as sound as the bodywork, and singles out the brake lines, sills and jacking points as being in excellent condition. The timing belt has been replaced.

Modifications include a Kakimoto stainless cat-back exhaust, Cusco coilovers and strengthened bushes, and WRC-style five-spoke white alloys with red Brembo calipers. Inside are Recaro seats and a Momo steering wheel. There is also a carbon rear spoiler, an intercooler water spray and the original factory mats. The page lists an MOT expiry of May 2017.
