2. Model History

The Evo Or More Formerly Known As The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Was First Offered Purely To The Japanese Market In 1992, With The Glorious Squared Evolution I, But Due To The Cars Aggressive Nature Both On And Off The Track, More And More Global Buyers Wanted To Experience The Unique Rawness That Had Been Offered By The Assembly Plant At Okazaki, In Japan. These Cars Had Everything To Please The Purist Of Drivers, With Extreme Body Detailing, World Class Japanese Build Quality And Of Course Ample Power That Would Give The Company`s Main Rival, Subaru A Damn Good Run For Their Money And Was Hugely Successful As A World Winning Rally & Track Car, Winning Numerous Awards For The FIA International Hill Climb Cup And Was Purchased By Private Individuals That Wanted To Perhaps Test Their Own Levels Of Driving Capabilities To The Full. Over The Years There Have Been Numerous Evolution Models All Of Which Had Been Decorated With Roman Numerals, All Improving Over The Years With Brake Horse Power, Updated High Speed Handling And Evolving Technology That Easily Adapted To Various Ever Changing Road Conditions Presented To That Professional Driver Or The Private Driver On This Daily Commute. All Models Now Play Their Own Part In The History Of Mitsubishi, Leaving A Strong Legacy That Will Never Possibly Be Beaten On Advanced Development.

In 2005 At The 39th Tokyo Motor Show The Mitsubishi Lancer X, Code Named The Concept X Was Showcased To The World As The Next Generation Of This Now Recognisable Japanese Brand And Is Now Viewed As Being The Ultimate Of All Ten Models Conceived, With Gifted Engineers Using Wisdom And Advanced Technology, With Many Man Hours Of Pain Staking Development In Creating A Vehicle That Improved On An Already Perfect Model, But Still The UK Had To Wait Until The March Of 2008, Before Eager Buyers Could Acquire Their Own Example From The Ralliart Dealers. There Was Different Variants Of The Evolution X, Some Being More Main Stream Than Others, But Still There Was An Option For Rarity With Some Models Like The FQ-400 & FQ-440 Being Supplied In Staggeringly Low Numbers And Today These Special Cars Have Become Highly Desirable On The Modern Day Collectable Marketplace, With Established Worldwide Private Vehicle Collections Demanding One Of These Few Cars To Be An Important Part Of Their Own Inventory. The Evolution FQ-400 Is Definitely One Of Those Holy Grail Cars With Just 35 Examples Ever Produced And Upgraded In The UK, With These Cars Starting Their Lives As Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR FQ-300 And Then Upgraded To The Official Classification Of FQ-400, With The Certifications Of Upgrade Being Very Important To The Cars Past History Trace. With Over 500 Hours Of Development Time To Re-Map The Standard ECU Unit, With A Bespoke Low Friction Conversion To The Turbo System, The Two Litre Aluminium Block Generated A Remarkable 403 Brake Horse Power With 387 lb ft Of Torque, Which Resulted In Acceleration From 0-62 MPH In Just 3.8 Seconds And Then Would Thunder To An Electrically Limited Top Speed Of 155 MPH, With All This Power Perfectly Controlled By The Full-Time Four Wheel Drive With The Super All Wheel Control System.
