Mitsubishi FTO Insurance
We specialise in a variety of niche motoring markets and have some incredible rates on Mitsubishi FTO insurance, providing a range of low cost, high quality deals.
Mitsubishi FTO: a popular grey import in the UK
The Mitsubishi FTO is a compact sports car that was popular in its country of origin, Japan, and other parts of the world, including the UK. These speedy little cars were only produced for the Japanese domestic market (JDM), with the exception of a short period before they stopped being made. Production ran from 1994 to 2004, but during these years, many FTOs were imported to the UK.
And it’s no surprise: the FTO won the Car of the Year Japan award for 1994–95 when it was first released, and the vehicle has garnered awards even after manufacturing ceased; it was voted Best Used Sports Car at the British Auto Trader Awards in November 2007.
How much is FTO insurance?
If your Mitsubishi FTO is a grey import, you might struggle to find affordable insurance. This is because the costs of sourcing parts for JDM cars are often higher than if the vehicle was made for the UK market.
That’s where we can help. We understand that if you’ve bought an import, chances are you’re a car enthusiast and will treat the FTO well. With over 50 years of experience as a specialist insurance broker for JDM cars, we can tailor cover to your needs and budget. We have a wide range of specialist schemes for all types of the FTO, including the GPX Mivec, GR, GS, and GPvR variants.

Does the FTO count as a classic car?
Given the FTO is no longer in production and it’s been over 20 years since it was last manufactured, we count the FTO as a modern classic car. This means you can benefit from our classic car insurance policies, which are often more affordable than standard policies.

Whether you’re 17 years old and have just passed your test or you’re 19 and have a couple of years’ experience, we understand that if you’ve decided to buy an FTO, chances are you’re a young car enthusiast and will treat your vehicle with the care and attention it deserves.
As a result, we’re able to cover you where other insurance providers cannot. We also have black box insurance schemes that can reduce your premiums by up to 60% on renewal.
The Mitsubishi FTO is usually found in relatively low insurance groups – around group 20. This means that your insurance should be fairly affordable. However, it’s important to note that the cost of your insurance depends on a number of other factors besides the vehicle you’re looking to cover.
