| sounds like your starter motor is on its way out, I know where you can get a good one for 300 |

Yes, dying starter. I remember one old car I had, where we always had to travel in pairs, with a long metal bar. Whenever we needed to go anywhere, person #1 would turn the key, and person #2 would bang the starter with the iron bar!!
Mitsubi here in WA apparently have some FTO front cuts. Or you could see what other Mitsubishis have the same unit...

Another option worth trying is a Starter Motor reset. I had mine done at Mitsi in Cannington (Perth). Been working like a charm since then.
