1985 Mitsubishi Scorpion GSR review from UK and Ireland
"Great fun, good looking, and very rare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust needed replacing.
Handbrake cable required freeing.
Slight rust on the rear arch.
New clutch.
General comments?
This car is not awesomely quick, but has phenomenal braking due to vented discs all round and a massive servo.
Suspension could be better.
Ugly steering wheel.
Very tunable 4G63t up to 400hp, but only 170hp standard.
