In this thrilling episode of Hoovies Garage, our fearless host embarks on a daring quest to rescue a beleaguered 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 10 from the clutches of neglect and shady shippers. Purchased for a mere $7,000, this Evo represents the epitome of automotive bargain hunting. However, as Hoovies soon discovers, this rally-bred icon is not without its scars. The car arrives with a damaged exhaust, a stubborn fuel door, and mysterious performance issues that threaten to derail the entire mission.
Undeterred by these initial setbacks, our intrepid host sets out on a test drive that quickly descends into chaos. With power loss plaguing the Evo and handling that can only be described as "sketchy," Hoovies finds himself struggling to keep the car on the road. Despite his best efforts, the Evo's top speed barely reaches 60 mph on a 75 mph limit road, creating a heart-pounding race against time to reach the Car Wizard's sanctuary.
Upon arrival at the Car Wizard's workshop, the true extent of the Evo's troubles is laid bare. From a malfunctioning fuel door to a mangled exhaust system courtesy of careless shippers, the car's laundry list of issues seems never-ending. As the team works to address these challenges, it becomes clear that this rescue mission is far from over. Will the Car Wizard work his magic and bring this wounded Evo back to its former glory? Only time will tell in this high-octane automotive adventure.
