Faults:

Amber engine light illuminated.

Exhaust fumes smelt of egg after long journeys.

General Comments:

The car is cruises wonderfully when it needs to and is quick and nimble when you want to!

The seats are very comfortable.

The suspension is very smooth, but not to springy.

Pulls out of roads quickly for a car its size.

Great boot space for shopping and luggage.

MPV type folding seats which fold into the floor.

Excellent handling for a car its height.

Faults:

The car arrived at the dealer without the allow wheels and minus all of the

Elegance trim parts. The dealer sourced all of the missing parts and fitted them.

Car ran perfectly for 22,000 miles then developed noisy tappets. The dealer stripped the head off and the vales were coked up to hell. They replaced the valves and tappet gear and decoked the engine - all under the warranty. Turns out that using supermarket fuel is to blame. Since then I've used only Shell and the car runs perfectly. Gives 45 MPG on a run and 38 around town.

General Comments:

Now five years old and still running like new with amazing get up and go.

Has more internal room than our other car (Subaru Forrester)

A little bouncy in the handling dept, but a great car.

Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:

This car is a dream to drive. The only adverse comment is that, even with the seats forward the boot space is poor.

The engine is quiet and responsive and the gears are like silk. The seats are comfortable and hug the back.

Faults:

Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this car.

General Comments:

The car is not quite as spacious as the Spacestar name suggests. The boot is no bigger than any hatchback. The rear seats do slide forward, but this takes away from the legroom of rear seat passengers. However the rear seats can also be collapsed to increase the boot space, which is great if you are carrying bulk items.

There are plenty of storage space around the car, such as under the front passenger seat.

The seats are reasonably comfortable.

The air-con drains a lot of power, this happened with a colt I had years ago.

The handling and suspension is somewhat soft, but overall is more than sufficient for carrying the family around.

Reliability is a strong point for Mitsubishi and is the main reason why I bought from this manufacturer.

The gear change is really smooth.

Acceleration is a little sluggish.

Overall a reliable, well handling car. I'm just not sure why they advertise it as an MPV rather than a hatchback.
