MITSUBISHI COLT 1.5 DI-D Equippe 5dr Auto (2004)

The Mitsubishi Colt is a fine car

Everyone always goes for the typical suspects; the Ford Focus, Fiesta or the Astra or Corsa. But why? Why do we need to go that route? Why can't we buy something cheap and with a bit more personality? That's why I bought a Mitsubishi Colt - and I love it.

Sure, the Colt looks quite different to the aforementioned, but the Colt has so much more personality; it's fun, ready for a laugh and turns heads. The MPG is as good as any mainstream hatch and, while the build quality may not be amazing, it's enough to keep you happy. The insurance is low, running costs are decent and it holds its value very well. Lots of positives.

I'd say the only downside is probably the driving position, which is a little too high, but apart from that I can't really fault it. It's just a good all rounder which can appeal to almost everyone. I'd recommend it.
