2010 Mitsubishi Lancer 1.5 AUTOMATIC. SOLD.

As an all-round car this scores high on the practicality stakes. The Lancer is good to drive, reliable, and versatile. Another big plus is that it is competitively priced. The interior has plenty of space; there’s more than enough for four adults in both the saloon and the sportback models, and there’s a fair amount of room in the boot(s). The cabin is comfortable, robust and well laid-out. There’s a generous level of spec and none of the dash displays will distract you while driving. On the road, it is easy to tell you’re driving a Mitsubishi. It feels well planted, with good steering and ride quality, and slick gear change. It is also quite efficient with minimal CO2 emissions and moderate fuel economy.
