1997 Mitsubishi Lancer GLX review from Greece
"Absolute Quality and Reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely Nothing.
General comments?
The car is very very reliable. The only extra cost was a new battery after 5 years. Although is 75HP is quite fast and nervous. The net consumption is 9,5 Lt /100Km, not so big I think for a car passed his life mainly in the streets of a big city.
Handling is good with the factory tires (175/70/13) but if you change it to a lower profile (185/60/14) the car becomes more accurate.
