1996 Mitsubishi Mirage CE review from Australia and New Zealand
"The most comfortable and reliable vehicle in its class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I owned this car for 6 years and never experienced a problem.
General comments?
Probably the best value car in this price range. I traveled up and down the east coast of Australia and never had a problem. I have recently traded this vehicle in on a new car, but only because it was starting to show its age. The seats tend to cut blood flow on the legs on long haul drives. The suspension gets a bit rough after 5 years, but this can be modified of course. I chose not to do this and upgrade instead. The resale value of this car is excellent.
