This Massive Salvage Operation Lifted 1417 Cars And A Ship From The Sea Bed
In 2012, the MV Baltic Ace sank in the North Sea with the loss of 11 sailors. What followed was a massive salvage operation to remove the vessel - and its cargo of 1417 Mitsubishis - from the bottom of the sea

Where any evos hurt ?
Apart from being underwater for 3 years, they’re perfectly fine.
No Evos onboard.
They said it wrecked in 2012… All the Final Editions :(
These are all just little cars and hiluxes. No final editions
i don’t get it.. final editions?
Everyone will be crying for the mitsubishis and I’m here like : THEY SLICED A SHIP ?
From Mitsubishi to Mizubishi
………I dunno if I should be proud or ashamed that I have watched enough anime to get that reference……
Well played.
A dozen men are dead, burried in a mass unmarked grave that was their place of work…. people be like “All dem poor mitsubishi evos ALL THE HUMANITY SOMEBODY SAVE THEM”.
humans die everyday. you cant do anything about it first i felt sorry for the people now i am just annoyed when war and hunger will stop
They still make humans, they don’t however make Evo’s anymore…
That really sums up this community, because stuff like this happens a lot on CT. They care about cars but some people here couldn’t care less when people die. It’s like when the photos emerged of the Fukushina exclusion zone, and people were upset that some decent cars were abandoned, but no one gave a sh^t about all the people that died.
I guess I have no soul then. I don’t care about either.
Due to big subsidies I would wager that mostly Outlander PHEV’s were destroyed in this wreck.
Pity the rest of those boats did make it to our shores, no way those SUV’s are as clean as they claimed.
Whut
Awesome!
Them poor men who died RIP …..erm don’t give a sh**t about those Mitsubishi “affordable family cars” after killing the legacy of those beautiful evo
This is heavy. RIP.
For all of you that think that there were final editions on board don’t worry, all the mitsubishi’s on board were produced here in Holland and we never made the evo here only the charisma, space star, colt and outlander.
