1998 Mitsubishi Colt GL review from Germany
"A rather good deal"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The wheel support had to be replaced at 20000 km.
The front disc brake pads had to be replaced 3 times.
Rear bumpers failed after 35000 km.
General comments?
The engine has very little torque.
It's fun to drive though it's not very fast. However the interior quality is pretty solid, the looks are sort of cheap.
Paint looks good, but is only a couple micrometers thick.
Door locks tend to freeze in the winter.
