Yes, this week"s pick of the online car ads really is a Mitsubishi Galant. But to create a sense of intrigue to make sure you don"t tut, shake your head and move on, this is a Galant worth over 100,000. No, we"ve not got our decimal places mixed up. It"s a Galant rally car, and while it"s not an immediate legend like, say, an old Mitsubishi Evo rally car with Makinen" daubed on its windows it"s still pretty damn cool. Just look at the thing, then try to resist drifting off into a dust-filled daydream and involuntary mimes of opposite lock. It"s a Group A Galant VR-4, and it used the defunct Group B Starion Turbo as its mechanical base. Anything with Group B in its genes is worth getting worked up about. It has four-wheel drive and four-wheel steering, and given it"s from 1990, the latter was fitted decades before Ferraris and Porsches utilised the same tech. Bank that in case you need some bragging rights to your 911 GT3-owning mate when you spend identical money to them, but on a 28-year-old Galant
