1996 Mitsubishi Legnum 25ST review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great power and practicality for a family wagon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Very little has gone wrong as it has been serviced every 6 months, thus extending its life. Needed a new thermostat and recently new brake pads.
General comments?
This car has a fantastic amount of room - I have shifted timber, freezers and furniture in it.
For a 2.5L V6 it accelerates very well, but could do with a suspension upgrade to improve handling and perhaps better brakes if your budget allows.
Interior is tasteful and practical.
Exterior looks good, but the factory alloys need to be changed to really set it off.
My car is red, but beware of this color oxidizing (as mine has begun to).
