New Zealand: Mitsubishi Mirage LS review (Auto Trader)

[MetroMPG]

Auto Trader drives the car and gives it 8/10 in another mostly positive review. And -- shocker! -- they join the small minority of reviewers who say nice things about the car's styling.

They really liked the engine, but I'm more than a little confused by the conflicting statements that the car is "slow", yet the engine has "a fair bit of verve when you put your foot down." Clearly "verve" doesn't equal "motive power".

Likes

• "Awesome little engine"
• dignified styling
• CVT works well
• urban driving character - "rather good fun"
• good interior room for small footprint

Dislikes

• handling at highway speeds
• steering at highway speeds
• bland interior
• slow

Overall

SHOULD I BUY ONE? Yes, on the understanding that you get what you pay for. [...] it’s cheap and characterful transport [...] in the right environment Mirage can really make you smile..
