Before becoming a rally icon, the Lancer was… a rally icon. Mitsubishi’s success actually dates back to the 1970s with the Lancer 1600 GSR, winner of the 1974 Safari Rally. At the time, the production saloon had a charming appearance and performance to match. This rare European example, preserved in a dealership showroom for many years, is looking for a new owner to take to the roads and bear witness to a bygone era.
This 1974 Mitsubishi Lancer A72, originally from Belgium, has 45,000 km on the clock. The seller states that the vehicle is in very good overall condition. This car is part of the first batch of new Mitsubishis imported into Europe in September 1974, and comes with a certificate signed by the importer, Mitsubishi Europe. The seller notes that it spent many years in a Mitsubishi showroom in Brussels and has had just one private owner since 1980.
The seller states that the vehicle is in very good condition on the outside. The pastel green bodywork has only a few visible flaws, as shown in the gallery; the seller notes some paint defects on the bonnet (see gallery).
