Faults:

The alternator stopped working for 1 day, but then appeared to fix its self.

Rear suspension bushes needed replaced.

General Comments:

Fantastic car, very quick with superb road holding. the ride is a bit hard, but you would expect that in this sort of car, very comfortable seats which hold well when cornering fast. the main problems with these cars are, 1. the very expensive running costs, service every 4500miles and the terrible fuel consumption. 2. the expense when something goes wrong with the engine or gearbox. but I do think it's a brilliant car and its worth the running costs.

Faults:

My Map sensor stopped working at 147,000km. Cost me a big 400 dollars to get it fixed.

Power Windows may need fixing soon, as they go up pretty slowly.

General Comments:

The car is very powerful and pretty quick off the mark for a automatic.

As soon as the mivec kicks in at about 5,000 rpm it takes off like a rocket.

Lots of room in the front and the back and big boot space.

Get about 350km's on a tank of gas only because I took the cat out to make the car more noisy

Very nice car to drive.

Has all the bells and whistles.

Faults:

Replace water pump at 190000kms.

Replace wheel bearings at 175000kms.

General Comments:

This cars is extremely fun around corners and sticks to the road well for a fwd.

Lowered shocks help in the handling.

Great first car.

Extremely cheap to run.

Faults:

Exhaust Manifold.

Carbon needed Cleaning.

Spark/Spark leads replacing.

Few dents from the light weight body.

Otherwise well looked after medium condition car.

General Comments:

Great city / country car.

I have a 4km long gravel driveway.

Shockys work great, great breaks.

Have not slipped once.

Quick and tight.

Good up to ~140 on the straight steering touchy @ high speeds.

FWD + no power steering = force feedback wheel = FUN.

Faults:

The distributor in the engine stopped working suddenly at 150 000 km and had to be replaced. The repairing cost ¼ of the cars market value.

General Comments:

The handling is in the corners very good.

On an Autobahn the middle of the steering wheel feels though very imprecise an uncomfortable. It's hard and very tiring to drive fast with this car. You don't want to go over 130kmh.

The acceleration up to 100kmh is for a 1.6L motor quite satisfying.

The ride is more on the sporty side, and with 195/50 R15 tires you will notice every bump on the road.

The saloon is a bit noisy, especially with higher speeds.

Faults:

Nothing.

General Comments:

This car is super quick and handles awesome.

Eats anything from Pulsar GTi-Rs to STi Imprezas, including Porsche 911 Turbos.

Awesome standard car with Recaro seats as standard with Momo interior.

Faults:

Not a lot.

General Comments:

Struggling to get affordable extras for the car due to it being quite rare. Spoilers and lowering springs are quite expensive compared to Ford etc.

Faults:

Bearings worn out in transfer case - cheap fix.

5th gear syncro worn, fan speed control resistors failed.

General Comments:

In my opinion a Lancer Evolution has the best price per performance of any car on the road. Standard car 13.1 1/4 mile for the equiv of US$10,000. Cheap to run, 10 litres/100k on the open road. Reliable, has never been undriveable. Usual Mitsubishi cam belt replacement should be followed without question. Better than any WRX.

Faults:

I had a flat battery after 80000kms, but that's the only problem I had.

General Comments:

This car was one of the best cars I've ever driven. It's very cheap to run and very reliable.
