Now as some here may not know #1 was written off last year and always wondered what happened to it. Insurer said it went pretty quick and that was the last I heard of #1 until today. Today I got letter from Mitsubishi and it was a survey thingy about my recent service of #1.

#1 is alive!! In NSW... How it got there I do not know but it is alive and recently serviced in the Gosford area. I wonder if it still looks the same.

Even funnier is I still have the spare key :D

It had extensive drivetrain damage, the drive shaft snapped and the wheels had a fun time when they bottomed out and burst. Poor ECU took a direct hit and shut everything down. The suspension and brake assemblies got more wrecked than a bogun all night on the piss

Hunt it down??

yep it should be white and Booth's Mitsubishi was where it was serviced. I will give plate number in pm.

As for what took out #1 was a BA Falcon. The C and a few other letters was speeding and didnt like red lights and slammed into the side of my car while I was turning. Lancer held up pretty well considering what slammed into it.

On the humour side of it; not only was #1 taken down, it took a BA Falcon and a Keep Left sign with it. Lancer landed on top of the sign, front of the car never hit it.

Dont even know where Gosford is apart from being in NSW. I want to hunt it down and maybe take photo, #1 and #2/R6 side by side... Would be very strange but not sure I can be trusted especially when I still have the spare key to it...
