The clock has stopped working.
Rattling driver window.
Suspension is rather hard yet sluggish at the same time.
I took a small knock to the rear bumper and the holding clip snapped, when I took it to be repaired the mechanic said the bumpers weren't held on well. A new bumper would have cost £300 with spraying and fitting extra.
The car is quite fast for a 1.3 I have managed 110 MPH.
Quite underpowered for its looks.
Automatic gearbox smooth except when trying to pullout quickly. resulting in a hesitation in moving after the accelerator has been pressed.
There is a lack of parts available for improving the car. For instance there is no performance air filter or exhaust available. There also are no body kits or modifying parts.
This is my second car. It's a 1.300-12V 5 speed from 1996. It was the last one from Belgium before the new model. Now I've 140.000Km, and I'm always satisfied of it. The engine goes very well (75HP) and my maximum speed is: 195 Km/h!!!
The engine sounds very well, I like to drive with it. It's a better car than a Peugeot 206 1.4HDI or Ford Fiesta 1.25 Zetec,... The interior's quality is good (but not perfect), but I've problems with the windows, with the joints, with exhaust pipe, with color,the battery is not enough powerful, and little electronic troubles (interior lights). In general, it's a good car.
Hey, Trying looking for a mitsubishi mirage or lancer parts if you can get them over there, is most places its the same car with different badge.
I also have a Mitsubishi Colt 1996. I find it very easy to drive. It has been reliable so far and looks amazing, but I also have the same problem. I like the idea of doing my car up, but am also having great difficulty finding parts for it. I have found some performance parts, but cannot find specific exterior styling parts. Otherwise it is an amazing car!!
