I have! Here's the last one I saw

You are looking at a year 2000 manual GPX. :cry: A very desirable car (pre-crash :wink: )
There was a '01 (or was it '00) UK reg FTO for sale on ebay a while back. Never seen any in this country though

Bit expensive but would help with reg plate snobbery :) Looks very clean. First thing to come off would be the mitsi logo though.
You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine'.

Not enough taste to remove that stupid mitsi logo on the side, very chav-tastic. It is in keeping with the quote from the ad though
. It was origionally a demo model brought into Ireland by Mitsubishi Ireland ltd

:?: :smt017 The FTO was never officially sold in Eire. Why would Misti Irl bring it in as a demo. I fail to see the logic. Look at the swift stylish sports cars we can make...please buy a 1.3 colt lx :wink:
Has the car been here since 2000? Has that stupid logo been on it for 6 years?

I rang him today to arrange a test drive, seems ok.
He said it came from Bolands, in waterford I think, and that he's had it since it since it was 1.5 years old. He'll NCT it before it's sold.
I agree it's pricey but it's worth looking at, I'd say if I could drop him by one or two grand I'd be on a winner. :wink:

The biggest hurdle would be convincing the wife that we'd be better off with an FTO than double glazing :lol:

That's a cracker, very similar to the one I was looking at.

Is that a badge, just under the side indicators?
