1992 Proton Mpi SE review from UK and Ireland
"OK, for a cheap runabout"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
ECU, Gearbox bearings, electric windows.
General comments?
The Car is hideously old fashioned and the bits proton have made to cover up or modify the old Lancer that its based on look cheap and don't last anywhere near as long as the original Mitsubishi made/designed components.
Overall though a decent car, certainly better than the likes of a Lada or old Skoda, FSO, Yugo etc...
