I love those 89-93 lancers! It brings back a lot of memories of me and my brother pretending to drive it when we were kids.. It breaks my heart to see those abandoned and most here in the Philippines are sold as scrap and parted out
Need to fix the clutch, some sort of electric work, a big rust removing, and a huge cleanup. Aaand ready to go! After 12 years of sleep all horses are running again! Great video, thx! 😎
Look, it just has no point. Its not like a cool project car like a bmw e34 or some mercedes from this era that builds up value if in great condition. In this country (estonia, the same where flexiny is from) mint condition lancers are worth like 500-1000 euros. For this price, you might find a road legal car that is ready to drive, has been really well taken care of and maybe even has a previous owner, who is some older guy who hasnt driven it in winter. Besides this, it has been standing still for 12 years (it propably needs new seals, new belts and etc). Its not like you take an engine that has been standing still for 12 years outside, turn the key and go to the MOT, lol. If somebody needs a donor for his Lancer then this should be a decent car for it for like a few hundred euros.
That just show the reliability of japanese cars, sitting for 12 years and AC still works, coolant is full, oil isn't leaking, power steering works fuel pump needs a bit of push but it works afterwards, i has this exact engine on a pick up that my family bought brand new since 2004 and it's been used daily until now, the odo meter has probably went back to 000000 multiple times by now and thing is still running very strong💪
I've just bought one of these a couple of days ago! Just love the old school design and style of those Japanese cars. I am 35 and the car is almost my age still running great!! Some minor cosmetic work to get done, change all liquids and filters and ready to go and be happy. My engine is 1.5l fuel injection. The car was manufactured in 1990. 👍❤️😉
In the US these were called a Mirage, my dad had a silver one with a huge dent in the rear quarter haha. I always remember the exact sound of how these start up
In my country we don't have this model (never see this model) but we have 1993 mirage based lancer (headlamps was mirage, body was lancer model that was similar to evo i, ii and iii) engine option was natural aspiration inline four 1.3L to 2.0L have a carburetor and fuel injection version. Good car too.
Nice one. I own a Mitsu Colt of that bodystyle, its also a 91 with the 1.5 12 Valve 90HP engine and I love that car. For me, the cars build in the late 80ies and early 90ies are some of the best Mitsubishi ever built. I also own a 1990 Lancer Station Wagen with the bodystyle of the older pre 1988 generation but with the same 1.5 12 Valve MPI engine, a 91 Eclipse and a 97 Space Runner. They are all great cars and are super reliable with regular maintenance, the main thing you have to keep an eye on with these generation is rust. Edit: Changing the Clutch on these is rather easy, because the fivespeed gearbox isn't really all that heavy (it weights around 35 Kg) and is easy to remove, since only one of the four mounts connects to the gearbox and thus has to be removed, the other three are connected to the engine block (unlike newer mitsubishis build after 96 with the swapped engineposition, where three of the four engine mounts are actually connected to the gearbox instead).
I had an 89 Colt with a similar body style to this. Absolutely loved it, but some c*nt in a BMW SUV who thought it's more important to dick around with their phone rear-ended and totaled it :( Haven't been able to find one that's not too far gone since then (this was in 2011). The few that are available and not a swiss cheese have the sellers ask ridiculous prices, and it's only getting worse...
@@Knaeckebrotsaege Its the same in germany, wich is why I'm taking really good care of mine. Over here you can actually check with the official Departments how many vehicles of a specific type are still registered on the roads and currently there are less then 80 of that generation of Colt registered in all of Germany.
I bought a non-running Lancer C62 with the 4G15 8V engine for 600€. Turns out it was the ECU at fault, the injectors did not open. Sent it for repairs and for 180€ got the ECU fixed. Since then I have a running perfect condition Lancer with 61000km for 800€. Recently I’ve bought another one. The GTi version for 850€. It wasn’t running for 8 Years. I had to also clean up the tank and replace the fuel pump. The car is running but it still has a lot of work to be done. Very impressed by the Japanese for making such reliable and cool cars!
1991 Mitsubishi lancer awesome vehicle they don't make them anymore new battery good condition keep up the good work friend bless you in the field automotive
Mom had a1976 Dodge Colt sedan. Gold with black vinyl top. Ended up being my first car. It was very reliable, dependable. Shape of three Lancer in this video reminds me of the 1991 Isuzu Stylus (US version). I think it was called Gemini or iMark in other markets. I owned one and loved it.
Theres been a 1996 lancer for 16 years in my family, daily use, this car has paid for itself over and over, its truly well made, specially the engine and gearbox, very comfy too.
Please repair this car and keep it going! These were very reliable cars, and that’s providing the owner kept them serviced. This car needs to have a fuel system service, and this will help this car to fire on the first crank. If this were my car, I would have never let it get like this!
That engine still sounds healthy...My parents has my 1990 Lancer however its parked in their backyard under a tree hasn't been used since 2014 or 2015...
god damn, it even still has the original exhaust with the flanged/ringed end. really wish you could still find ones in as good of a condition here in germany. They're either swiss cheese, worn to hell and back or sellers ask high 4 digit prices (in eur) for the better ones
Правдивей и интерестней было б,как раньше делал....запитал бы с канистры,на прямую...чтоб реально показать,что двигатель ожил только дай ему питание и топливо...НО,ВСЕРАВНО-КРАССАВА!!!
Great video! you gotta love those great little cars... I own one 92 automatic sometimes it anoyying that its only 3 speed auto and not maunal like yours :)
When I was a kid, I saw these cars almost every day driving on the streets, now I am happy, when I see one in a year. Its really sad. But I am so glad to see this old beautiful girl here in the Video.
saw one very similar to these in the junkyard and it was REALLY clean on the inside it looked brand new and outside it had only small scratches but then it was crushed
We had this as our previous car really good quality suspension is smooth compared to our replacement 2005 Kia Picanto but our taillights have a white turn signals
It just astonished me that people abandoned cars for some of the silliest reason, such as a clutch. I understand cars don't last forever. However, even new vehicle still requires money to maintain them. I swear some people have way too much money. I drive an 18-year-old Ford with almost 500,000km and, it's still run great and have no intention of upgrading until I need to! Greeting from Australia btw!
Reading some of the comments I understand why. "putting in a new clutch means the parts and labor will end up more than the car's worth", it pains my heart to see people being such penny pinchers that they'll have no problem leaving a nice car in which everything works to die just because one of the wear items needs to be replaced.
I remember when they’ve been literally all over the shop. My relatives had one of these and it was to use his words heap of Japanese crap it was always something to fix on it I think it was a red 1992 Mitsubishi. Nowadays I’ve never seen one on the road in Sweden.
Somehow I loved the Mitsubishi design in the Eighties…very distinctive….
@Kanzen Александр Nein.
Indeed.

No doubt! The car has cool lines and a great stance right off the assembly line.

I lived in Makati in 1991 when I was 10. At that time my dad's car was Lancer GLX
A 94 Lancer was my first car in 2008 it ran horrible since it had a serious compression issue but I loved it so much
Old Japanese cars never die!
Need to fix the clutch, some sort of electric work, a big rust removing, and a huge cleanup. Aaand ready to go! After 12 years of sleep all horses are running again!
Great video, thx! 😎
Time belt, brakes, suspensión etc
Parts and labour will be 10 times what this old car is worth..

Nah, the rust contributes to a vintage look, leave the rust.
I still drive one with the exact body shape and engine even though mine was carburatted, it's been done 409,000 km and still going strong
I have an Exact same car cure currently at 380,000km, Daily Drive....
Jup, I drive one as well. Its my daily driver.
I have an exact same Model Mine is at 412,000km and still dgoing strong
After clutch fixed, next video part is car wash and detailing pls 😁
Definitely, that car deserve this! Surviving in such a great shape for 12 years outside.

I think he dont look so bad. Big Service, little rust work and back to street
P.s. greetings from germany
Slipping clutch is due normal usage, these cars are super good quality. Happy to see 100k people interested in this old proper beauty :)
slipping clutch and tow hook... wonder where that came from lol
Man I miss my 1989 Lancer EL after seeing this. Jeez. I hope to buy that back.

He keeps his personality. Whatta good car. I would be proud driving one Lancer of that year.
1991 Mitsubishi lancer awesome vehicle they don't make them anymore new battery good condition keep up the good work friend bless you in the field automotive
in the Philippines we called it " Lancer Singkit" 😍😎
Why the "Singkit"? What does that exactly mean? I always wanted to know.
Ahh a glorious manual transmission. That alone made it worth of reviving.
Poor Lancer. I love the look of this car, almost bought one of these... still hope one day I'll have a car like this. I just love it!
this brought back some nostalgia when my dad used to have this car
12 лет и я чет ни одной дыры нигде не увидел, земля только под капотом, даже фары вроде горят)), очень достойно и сиденья удобными выглядят)
This brings back memories of our first family car here in the Philippines. Thank you for the video.
My dad's car was LANCER GLX too in 1991 Makati Metro Manila.
I always loved this generation of the Lancer. Great video!
Cars beatifull..30 years...the best time..90s
Y like very match...joseph from paraguay...

I own 5 of these, had a GTI but sold it, now I own 2 4WD lancers from 90 :D
they are the best japanese cars i have a gti lancer like that and a cyborg mirage

Nice, same model was my very first car. Bought it for like 100 dollars in 2011. Was very reliable though.
The classic lancer, always a treat to the eye
Saw a red one of these a few days ago, it's like you know what cars to get going ;)
Good cars them Vauxhall’s
In U.S.A.,Puerto Rico and other cities this car called Mitsubishi mirage.
I had a 90 Colt , loved it , great driving position. They rust mightily , that Lancer looks saveable!
damn it started without hesitation!
En 1991 yo tenia 13 años...hoy amis 44 años me sigue gustando ese Mitsubishi
Loving this new style of videos!
I'd love to see more of this car there's a certain charm about it. Cheers!
4:16 I love that sound, reminds me of a VW Gol
That engine still sounds healthy...My parents has my 1990 Lancer however its parked in their backyard under a tree hasn't been used since 2014 or 2015...
One thing is, park a Mitsubishi for years, it’s gonna fire up right away that’s for sure 💪🔥
Nothing more satisfying to watch on a Saturday morning. 👍
Same here
luckily you got this model brother.
My father's first car when he was in college.
I had the same car in black. It was a super saloon and really powerful japenese muscle car.
This Lancer generation was once a popular car here in Philippines, next to the Corolla of the same time.......
and a more sportier option here too....
8;07i love ur shifting.... u r my new mechanick
Being an old Lancer, it'd run for another 50 years plus now.. Gotta love how cars get abandoned for such a small problem 🙃
That year style Lancer was unique. Great little car
Судя по состоянию неплохо сохранилась
I love this model of lancer... extremely rare here in Ireland now
@The Vehicle Boi hi
god damn, it even still has the original exhaust with the flanged/ringed end. really wish you could still find ones in as good of a condition here in germany. They're either swiss cheese, worn to hell and back or sellers ask high 4 digit prices (in eur) for the better ones
I used to have this kind of car..
very lively on the streets
I have an old Mitsubishi colt and I’m surprised that the engine sounds exactly the same
It's amazing hardly any rust over there with you mate. Brilliant best will it start video's on CZcams. 👍
Good job guys! I think I’ve never seen a Lancer Sedan in my country, here Mitsubishi only sold the 5doors hatchback version.
Where are u from?
Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
Flexiny … Great videos…!!!
Great work as always thanks from JDS in AZ usa
My grandfather had the dodge lancer. It was a hatchback car
Love this channel :) thx for your work
:O
Nostalgia, my grandpa had one and i wish he didn’t scrap it
You got a nice find there, lets hope it wont be sent to the scrapyard
What a lovely car!
Still looks pretty good for almost 30 years old car no rusthols at fenders

super reliable
ours was a 1989 1.5 liter model. loved that car when i was growing up. it has logged 170k kms only? it still has got a lot of legs on it in that case.
