Oh my God, what the hell have I bought

2000 Mitsubishi Galant 2.5 V6 24v Estate.

Leather, Electrically adjustable and heated seats and no end of other luxuries I've never had before like PAS and Climate. Cost to me, £446 including buyers premium. It'll still be worth it even if it turns out to be a shed and I just keep the seats for the living room ;D

There's a receipt with it showing that the previous owner paid £4650 for it in November '07 :shocked:

Nice. Always loved the looks of these. They have a certain menace about them. ;)

£446 though! :shocked:

Utter bloody bargain!

Like Flibster, always liked the look of these, got a mean twinge to them but without being as flat out evil looking as an Evo is.

Local auction is a couple of minutes walking distance from home so I've been going down there regularly over the last month or so, it's a bit of a risk and there are things that'll need attention but I'm intending to sort them myself so unless it turns out to be properly knackered it'll still work out good value.

160bhp : 0-60 8.3

The V6 should give a lot of pull though, lovely

Same basic engine as the 280BHP VR4, but without the DOHC and turbos :p

Good choice! Always liked the look of these, especially the VR4 models.

edit:- Being an estate it will mean you can fit all your stuff in for sprinting that much easier.

Very nice, I like these a lot and there price is very cheap. Just unfortunate that there isn't many non estates about.
