Saw that alright, excellent price for an 01, surprised there aren't a few bids on it already but there'll prob be a few late on. 01 manual, now there's a rare FTO for ya!

I threw it into the VRT calculator, wouldn't show up FTO if you had no to first registration in Japan, so this might be a bit off.

DATE OF FIRST REGISTRATION(MM/YY): SEPTEMBER 2001
OPEN MARKET SELLING PRICE:
(applicable on enquiry date) €18465
RATE OF TAX: 30.0%
VEHICLE REGISTRATION TAX:
(payable on enquiry date) €5539

It's a rear gem alright.

Very low milage, GPX, manual.

I think the colour isn't the greatest selling point.

Still a beauty though.

i thought they stopped production in 2000?

I believe so. But the car would not necessarily be first registered in the same year that it was made.
(BTW you can see from the photos the type of rear fog light I was referring to in your NCT thread!)

Dead right, considering only 160 were made that year, its a rare find.

Its one of the few cars offically imported by Mitsubishi into the UK under their RalliArt brand (the franchise for which no longer exists) - the original price of this car in the UK would have been 23.5K GBP which would put it up with some fairly exotic machinery in todays market - inc S2000, 350Z and RX8. All UK supplied FTO's were GPX's.
