Mitsubishi Pajero 3.2 Exceed Import

Advantages: Space, Speed, Safety and Reliability
Disadvantages: Size for city traffic

The best car ever! So much power. If you are looking for a powerful car that can last the way, this is the one. I have had not once any mechanical or electronic trouble with this vehicle. The only disadvantage I can see is the sheer size of it - not ideal for innercity parking problems and also the cost of parts ... Unfortunately, reverse and wing mirrors as well as reverse light and many other removable external parts seem to be on the top of every ...
...the manufacturer! Other than that: it has masses of space which makes it absolutely ideal for a big family , it is very reliable, it is fast and safe. Comfort comes with space in this car: never experienced more leg room in any other vehicle with exemption of the two back seats when converted into a 7-seater. Not great, even my kids struggled to squeeze in at the back. I would defenitely buy this car again given the choice!!! ...

Review of Mitsubishi Pajero 4x4 Import

L200 Sadly Flawed and Unreliable

Advantages: Compromise between comfort and load capacity
Disadvantages: Poor mechanical quality, abominable turning circle

...It was also recalled for a solenoid problem. At 64,000 miles, the cylinder head failed causing a £2500 engine rebuild!! Finally, less than 3000 miles later, the Big End has failed in the newly rebuilt engine - another £2k bill coming!! I wont buy Mitsubishi again!!! ...

Review of Mitsubishi L200

A love - hate relationship!

Advantages: Looks great and is surprisingly quick.
Disadvantages: Noisy, uncomfortable, expensive to run, depreciation!

I have had my galant v6 sport automatic estate for 8 years. I still love the way it looks and its 0-60 of 6.5 seconds, but....and there are a lot of buts.....I hate the noise, the discomfort, the expensive low profile tyres and the servicing costs! Steering box packed up (£2,500) , water pump packed up (£400), alternator belt shredded (£10)! I dont like having to pay £80 every year to have leaves removed from the interior fan! Oh, and the clock ...
...can live without that. Tyres have been an issue...OEM Dunlops were crap. Tried firestone, better, then michellin pilot sport, better still, then michellin exalto, even better. But road noise is a major issue as is a rock hard ride. So its done 97,000 miles. Only been serviced by rallyart technician, yet still has given me grief. I now have noisy hydraulic tappets which will cost £600 to replace. And how much is this car worth? £22,000 new....Y ...

Review of Mitsubishi Galant 2.5 V6

15 months of Space Star ownership

Advantages: Price, economy, driving position
Disadvantages: service costs, dated looks

...had never heard of a Mitsubishi Space Star until I went looking for a Honda Civic (does that make sense?) You see my local Honda dealer (J.T Hughes in Telford) is next door to a Mitsubishi dealer (J.T Hughes in Telford). I wanted a diesel and Honda have only just started taking diesels seriously, so the Civic offerings at that time only had the Isuzu 1.7 engine, and the economy was not listed at being that good. I Looked around at all the used cars ...
...the Space Star is a Mitsubishi by badge only, they are actually made in the Netherlands and have a Renault engine, and various parts from other cars made at the same factory including Volvo, but in saying that the Carisma is basically a space star saloon, so do Mitsubishi make any cars at all? I selected a 1.9 DidS as my test car, the S having 115 compared to 100 horse power, side skirts, roof spoiler, roof rails and a lower road tax group. The ...

Review of Mitsubishi Space Star 1.9 DI-D S 5dr

Think twice before buying a Mitsubishi Shogun!

Advantages: Great looks, safety, great for countryside, ?space?
Disadvantages: NON-economic, expensive, depreciates quickly

...decided on getting a superb Mitsubishi Shogun, wonderful car, I read, great to drive I heard. So I started to scavenge around the local Private Dealers, after all, I've got a bit of cash, and for that touch of perfection, I'd rather have perfection in life rather than a hell life of rusting nuts, so I got out, on my mystery search, to find "this" car. Luckily, just a short walk away from my house, I find a dealer, who's got 1 Mitsubishi Shogun in ...
...steering is one to thank Mitsubishi for, and the great suspension, as well as the speed capabilities for such a large car. The customer service from Mitsubishi, was not great, and could of been much better, they weren't easy folks to get in contact with, and when and if you did, it would be very, and I mean very, expensive, to get anything at all fixed with them. The looks of this car, are brilliant, it looks big, and ferocious, but in the same ...
