1993 Mitsubishi Lancer GSR review from UK and Ireland
"Scooby-eating stealth machine that still makes me feel good after 2 years"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well, nothing that hasn't been my fault...
I blew the alternator jump starting it from a Cavalier which handily had an orange cover on the negative terminal and nothing on the positive.... it was early in the morning, so that's my excuse.
I slid into a kerb last Xmas and fubared an alloy, but that gave me an excuse to get nice 16" rims :)
And apart from regular serviving, replacing the clutch, and pads once or twice, that's been it.
General comments?
If you can find one, it's a bargain. Mega sleeper potential due to the lack of Evo-type scoops and wings, but basically the same performance.
Insurance is a bit of a killer as they tend to get lumped in with the Evos by the insurance companies and 22-25mpg ain't all that, but hey, what do you expect?
