1983 Mitsubishi Scorpion GL review from Australia and New Zealand
"I love it, but for me its time to upgrade"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The indicators do have a time delay, but that comes standard with the car.
Have just recently been told that there are two (2) fuel filters. One under the bonnet and one underneath the motor.
The fuel filter gets blocked now that there is no Leaded fuel.
The tappets do tend to tick now and then. Also happens when it needs a service.
General comments?
I love this car. Its so nice and easy to drive.
I was 18 when I got it and am now 23. It is my baby. Its trustworthy and a great first car.
Its roomy inside. Only frustrating cause its has 2 doors and not 4. But I'm happy with that. For now!! LOL.
