New Ralliart owner in Brisbane

Postby 8Ball » Thu Feb 25, 2010 10:37 pm

Hi, I finally have a Ralliart :D (well I pick it up tomorrow). You see it's a long story, stick with me.

I had been working for a company for 12 years when an opportunity I couldn't refuse presented its self at a competitor. I took the job and had to wait 3 months (my probation period) before looking for the perfect replacement for my 2001 Jeep Wrangler... Ok ok don't hold it against me. :oops:

Anyway this was the last half of 2008 and I hear a buzz about Mitsu releasing a Ralliart version of the lancer. I went straight to the dealer and placed my order even before they were released. It was another 3 months before I got the call to say they had my car. I emailed my finance application straight away. I had been putting finance off as the global financial crisis was pushing interest rates down and I was waiting until the very last minute to get the best rate.

About an hour after I had sent the application I was called into the boss’s office and made redundant along with 17 other employees. :shock: (Mine was something to do with last in first out) :cry:

So after a couple of short contract rolls and a large amount of time out of work I have found the perfect job for me and am now back in a position to get my RA!

Great forum from what I have read so far.

I've heard this story before. You were on the now 'defunct' r-lancer website eh????? :lol: Nothing wrong about coming from a Wrangler mate. I had a pimpin one before I bought my Ralliart and some days I still wish I hadn't sold her. If she would have gotten more than 350k's on a 72 litre tank I would still have her but.....anyway.....Welcome to Club CJ!!!

Another blue FTW.

I feel your pain, been out of work for a while myself. Good to hear you found something.

Congrats on the purchase, Mitsubishi don't bullshit when they say love that car.

Good things come to those who wait, if you bought the car in 08 you would not have been able to get leather seats and you probably would have paid a bit more.
