1998 Mitsubishi Lancer GLI review from Australia and New Zealand
"Cheap and well groomed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the gear box, which was very expensive, but not unaffordable.
The front headlight has been moved by the bumper.
The front grille snapped costing $100, fairly expensive.
General comments?
Cool car, looks really great after it has been done up a bit eg. exhaust tip, chrome rims, fine all round.
Handles like a champion, sticks to the road.
This car is worth your money. Plus it only cost me $17,000 at the time.
