Description
Testing the waters. ( I am in no hurry to sell the FTO as it is a garage princess, therefore any lowball offers or 'if i come this week can you take 2, 000 off' offers will be rejected). -
I have a very uncommon sight on British roads these days for sale,
The Mitsubishi FTO won the car of the year in Japan, 1995, and later was known as the forbidden fruit the uk didn't get. But thankfully, a few made their way here.
And of all the FTOs anyone wanted. It was the 5/ Speed Mivec FTO in Passion Red.
That is exactly what is on offer here.
The car has recently had a full going over after the previous MOT left a lot to be desired.
£5, 000 spent in the last 9 months getting it to a good mechanical standard.
I Bought is as a fun summer car last year but quickly realised, while it was largely well preserved, it had been also largely neglected Mechanically due to trading hands frequently and never getting the money it needed to get it to being a good car.
So here is my,
Recommissioned Import Mivec Manual Mitsubishi FTO,
- Garage kept
- 76, 000miles (odometer is in k/ m)
- Mechanically Recomissioned
- Mivec Conversion (factory standard)

The FTO does have age related cosmetic defects as is to be expected for a 29 year old car. That said, the FTO is in remarkably great overall condition. Owning this car for the last 15 months has been somewhat of an Easter egg hunt for bits that went missing over the years. That said the car now has a very good factory spec. As it should have before many hands got involved.
