Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI 1999

Allmän beskrivning : A brilliant Evolution VI, with just 26k miles from new.

MODEL HISTORY

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is a high performance sports car manufactured by Mitsubishi Motors that is based on the standard Lancer. There have been ten official versions to date, and the designation of each model is most commonly a Roman numeral. All use two litre, turbocharged engines and all-wheel drive systems.
 

The Evolution was originally intended only for Japanese markets, but demand on the "grey import" market led the Evolution series to be offered through Ralliart dealer networks in the United Kingdom and in various European markets from around 1998. Japanese-spec cars were limited by a gentlemen's agreement to advertise no more than 276hp, a mark already reached by Evolution IV. Therefore, each subsequent version has unofficially evolved above the advertised power figures, with the Japanese-spec Evolution IX reaching an alleged output of around 317hp.
 

The Evolution VI was produced from January 1999 until March 2001. The improvements over its predecessor mainly focused on cooling and engine durability. It received a larger intercooler, larger oil cooler, and new pistons. The Evolution VI received new bodywork yet again, with the most easily noticeable change being within the front bumper where the huge fog lights were reduced in size and moved to the corners for better airflow.
 

Great rally success was achieved in the WRC Rallies from 1996-1999 thanks to the legendry Finn Tommi Makinen for clinching the drivers titles in this period and help from team mate Richard Burns for clinching the constructors championship for the first, and thus far only time in 1998.

Equipment

Air conditioning, Touchscreen CD/DVD player, Momo steering wheel, Recaro seats, Electric folding mirrors, Electric windows, Boost gauge, Turbo timer, Mitsubishi wind deflectors, Mitsubishi carpet mats, Tinted rear windows, Front and rear strut braces, Spare key.

EXTERIOR

Unlike most, this Evo VI has led a coveted life away from racetracks and as such looks brilliant with its glossy white exterior. It still wears its original coat of paint that remains in excellent condition, completely free of any dents, scratches, or imperfections. There is no corrosion to the bodywork whatsoever, with the underside equally clean.
 

All the plastic trim and window rubbers retain a factory-fresh matte black finish, and the lenses remain crystal clear. An interesting fact on the Evo VI is that it boasted the largest adjustable rear spoiler before the regulations were changed for a smaller single wing on the Evo VII.

INTERIOR

The new car theme continues on the inside. Opening the door reveals perfectly clean door cards and wear-free upholstery. The factory Recaro seats are excellent and free from any signs of use, and the dash presents well without the smallest scratch.
 

The carpets too are pristine, protected by a full set of Mitsubishi mats, and the boot area is equally spotless. The hugely practical interior also boasts a touchscreen CD/DVD player with SD card slot, as well as a turbo pressure gauge to ensure correct and safe running.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION

The mighty two-litre DOHC turbocharged engine produces 276hp and rockets the Lancer from 0-60 in well under five seconds. Benefitting from the addition of a strut brace, the engine bay remains in great order with nothing untoward to note.
 

Despite its high-performance credentials, the Lancer still drives with typical Japanese-car ease; operating smoothly at low speeds before launching into ferocious acceleration at anything above 4000 rpm.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES

The Evo VI sits on the correct 17-inch OZ Racing alloys, which are in excellent condition having been refurbished in a darker shade of grey. They are present without the tiniest chip and are shod in a brand new set of Bridgestone Potenza tyres all round.
 

The bright red Brembo calipers appear new between the spokes, and the discs show plenty of life left.

HISTORY FILE

First registered in February of 1999 this Lancer has covered a mere 26,423 miles to date. Having previously resided in a dry climate, the car was recently imported into the UK where all duties and taxes have since been paid.
