1998 Mitsubishi Verada XI review from Australia and New Zealand
"Luxury and comfort to a T"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
135000km rear electric aerial ground to a halt.
159000km had complete breakdown of the auto transmission (planetary set), apparently a common fault with Magnas. Nearly $3000 to recondition.
Issues with rear boot catch, another fault with Magnas.
Fuel economy is very average unfortunately.
General comments?
Performance: A very fast sporty car, corners well, beautiful to drive.
Interior: Ample interior space and lighting, comfortable adjustable seats, excellent climate control.
