My FTO

Postby Mitsubishi-Mental » Tue Dec 28, 2010 12:28 am

Well lads and ladies, i joined the club a few months ago looking for an FTO. In the end i went for a 1.8 DE2A GS,
She's fairly standard, just lookin to get it lowered, set of HID's and bumper touch ups for now. I'm considering the Tein lowering springs off Camskill or RSR springs off Nengun. had the RSR's on the mivec before they were very good but not a great drop
here she is :D

Check out this vid of my old fto, very similar colour, has the cream leather which is a savage combination IMO.

Around 1.20 you'll see the interior.

Yeah, i sold this one to David,

Its a cool colour, lovely blue.
I bought it for the girlfriend and got it through the nct first time, but she would not drive it as she said it was too flashy!!!!
I must say the 1.8 engine is bullet proof and so reliable.

The girlfriend has since bought a 00 1.4 golf, driveway is destroyed from oil staines, it sounds like a diesel, tonnes of back pressure.
But she wouldnt listen to me!!!

I must agree about a cream interior, it would look cool.

Its refreshing to see a GS on the scene among all of the V6 engined versions, good luck with the car.
