    "he" tests cars and gives reviews for Top Gear. I dont quite remeber his name. And "ffffuh" = my sensored version of "fuck!".

    When he says "Mitsubishi British engineers" hes talking about the people who developed the Evo FQ-400. Its a 400 horsepower Evo only available in Europe.

    What the ffffuh is he talking about when he says: "Mitsubishi's British engineers" ??

    When the Evo's hit the European ports..the British MMC modify and tune Evo's for sale in their Mitsu dealers in Europe only as the "FQ" series which literally means "Fucking Quick".

    These modified and tuned Evos are sold in Mitsu dealers brand new with factory warranty covered by MMC in Europe of course but meeting their service guidelines like oil changes, tire rotations, etc etc.

    The previous generation Evos had 4 available FQ models:

    FQ 300 (Fucking Quick 300bhp)
    FQ 330 (Fucking Quick 330bhp)
    FQ 360 (Fucking Quick 360bhp)
    FQ 400 (Fucking Quick 400bhp)
