Is this the Mitsu 7000RPM that I have seen previewed in my French "Cars of the World" mag of a couple of months back? Though their pic looked seriously evil. Basically looked like a 2-seat desert racer apparently with an Evo6 engine in it. The pic I had showed exhausts poking out of the door sills though.
If I dare ask the guy at work to scan it, and if it comes out, and if I can find a free webhosting site, I might possibly post a pic. BJH |
Brendan,
I think its the same!! Taken from the AutoExpress web site: <I>Mention the name Mitsubishi and most car fans think of big 4x4s or the EVO range of road-going rally cars. Combine the two, and you have what could be the most fearsome mud-plugger ever – the Shogun/ Pajero Evolution. And here is the official picture... The car is the first creation of the firm's new chief engineer Oliver Boulay, and the futuristic lines are radically different to the boxy look of its last hot off-roader, sold in Japan as the Pajero Evolution. SUVs that use a coupé-shaped body and 4x4 chassis aren't new – Porsche's Cayenne and VW's Multi-Activity Concept (MAC), will be in showrooms soon. But with a strong rally heritage behind it, this car, which is on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show, is being seen as a test bed for a production model. With Mitsubishi having proven its expertise in turning the sedate Lancer into an awesome rally racer and a highly tuned street-legal sports car, the Evolution promises to be an outrageous vehicle. The first model was built for competition in the legendary Paris/Dakar rally, and this new car also has the desert event in mind, with former race winner Jutta Kleinschmidt involved in the design. The sleek and aggressive looks will be matched by state-of-the-art technology and enormous power. Under the bonnet is a 3.5-litre V6 and the car also features hi-tech stability systems.</I> Cheers Neil [This message has been edited by ScoobyJawa (edited 13 September 2001).] |
yeah its in auto express this week.
called a Shogun Evolution ! its on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show as a 'test bed for a production model' Article says it will use a 3.5 V6 engine but no power figures and feature 'high-tech stability systems' The design has been assisted by a former winner of the Paris / Dakar Rally. no doubt if its produced it'll be used on a school run near you !! steve |
