Mitsubishi Colt (04 on) - Review

Review by David Ross on
Last Updated: 30 April 2009
If you're after a good value alternative to mainstream hatchbacks like the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa, then the Mitsubishi Colt could be the answer. It's available with either three or five-doors out and thanks to its tall profile it boasts a spacious cabin with good room for passengers in the back. There's a decent choice of engines including a diesel and it's safe and easy to drive making it good in town - although the large windscreen pillars restrict visibility somewhat. If you can live with the small boot the little Colt represents a well equipped small hatch that's comfortable and ideal if you want something a bit different. It was facelifted in late 2008 with a very different front end and more boot space, but the interior and engines remain largely unchanged.
