Mitsubishi Colt 1.3 GLX 3d (1996/P) Owner Review

Economy
Value
I honestly can't think of any other car that's better value, performance, build quality, reliability; the Colts got it all.
Costs
Can't complain here, as with anything parts from a dealer will be costly, but there are plenty of parts cheaper from other sources.

Driving
A fantastic car to drive! A good balance of performance and quality.
Performance
Excellent performance for a 1.3, it handles well in the corners, acceleration is good, as is the top speed.

Living with it
Reliability
Its Mitsubishi, that says it all really
Image
I think this car looks great, and as there aren't many around these days it makes a welcome site to see a Colt on the roads
Comfort
Very good, the engine isn't too noisy at cursing speed. The seats are firm but commutable. Rear leg room is all that lets it down here.

Security and Service
Security
Standard.
Service
I've only contacted the Mitsubishi dealers a couple of times for advice, and they were always pleasent and helpful.
