1998 Mitsubishi Mirage Mivec VR review from Cyprus
"A high revving performance car giving lots of fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing I have worries about is the drivers seat is wearing a little bit.
General comments?
This car is incredible for a 1.6l engine, it may not be that quick under 5200rpm, but when it gets there it goes.
I have got coil-over suspension on mine that blesses the car with so much grip.
The extra carbon fibre inside makes the interior look better.
