1997 Mitsubishi FTO GR review from UK and Ireland
"I would have no trouble recommending this car to anyone who wants a quick, reliable sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Reliability has been superb.
Tyre wear could be a problem, though. Mind you, the way this car begs to be driven I suppose it's a small (?) price to pay.
General comments?
What a car! It is seriously quick, even with the auto box. But put it into Tiptronic, find yourself a windy B road and have some serious fun.
My partner has a really well sorted Porsche 924S that just can't live with this. In fact I can't keep her out of the FTO!
