The Mitsubishi Evo has built up a cult following as a rally-bred performance car capable of astonishing acceleration and superb handling. The tenth incarnation, or X as Mitsubishi badges it, builds on this reputation but adds some much needed refinement and comfort.

Evidence of regular and professional servicing is essential when buying an Evo and avoid any that have been thrashed or show evidence of track use. The FQ-300 is quick enough for most and will prove cheaper than the more powerful versions while the only real advantage of having a GSR model is the sat nav and music server system. If you want the ultimate then go for an FQ-400 - but these weren't introduced until June 2009 so the earliest cars will be on an 09-plate.

The Evo has always held it's value well, even going back to early imported cars, so you should have few problems getting the asking price - especially if it's a well cared for and regularly serviced example. FQ-300 GSR models with the standard five-speed manual gearbox are likely to be the most sought after.
