    When did you buy the car?

    May 2007

    Did you get a good deal and why?

    Owned by garage and had a very low mileage and reversing sensors included. Well worth the money. Also gave me a full tank of petrol!

    Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

    Had owned a Street KA but didn't get on with it. Looked at micra, tigra, peugeot but this was the best one as had good visibility, no roll hoops and a good size boot. Also good headroom.

    What was the dealer like?

    Very helpful and accommodating. Not at all pushy.

  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Great little runaround. Goes up hills with no problem and has coped with snow and icy roads very well. Front visibility can be a bit of an issue with the wide front pillars but just have to compensate a bit by leaning forwards on roundabouts etc.

    What's it like to park?

    No problem but has got reversing sensors although think it would be no problem without these. Has got low skirt though so need to watch out for this if going up on pavement or pulling in on country lanes.

  • Living with it

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Have you had any problems with the car?

    Masses of things but all fixed by dealer and/or Mitsubishi. Main problem with windows having a mind of their own.

    What's most practical about your car?

    Space in front, good headroom and legroom. Good size boot with roof up.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    Love it with the roof down. Good cd.
