www.mymitsuph.com is a good resource.

Not to sound shallow but I really hate the way the airvents on the dash of that Lancer. They're too brittle and break easily. hehehe.

All the usual used car buying stuff apply when checking out this model. I don't know if it has any particular weakness.

I had one, it had so much problems I had no regrets selling it. Then again it was my first car, so baka naabusado ko rin hehe.

Pro?

Very light chassis, matipid if you take it easy.
Cyclone engine said to be great.
Love the seat bolstering, sarap sakyan.

Con?

Like Doc Otep said, air vents too brittle (see attached pic hehe)
Shift knob felt vague, easily popped out of 1st gear.
Very LITTLE room in the back, and the rear windshield doesn't help.
Trunk is OK, medyo shallow nga lang dahil mataas yung pwet niya.
Never was a fan of a 2 spoke steering wheel.
Front chin is too low, parati sumasayad sa steep curbs. May subframe kasi siya right in the middle.


Mine was 89 EL by the way, 1.3 lang yung makina.

ano pa po mga sir?
kasi ang balak ko sanang kunin is yung GLxi or GTi model eh.
ano nga pala ang pinagkaiba nung dalawang yan? (GLxi at GTi)
1.3 lang ba yang dalawa?

GTi na lang. Yun yung singkit na may spoiler, chins tsaka side skirts. hanggang ngayon ang wafoo pa rin nyang model na yan. yung GLXi, wala.

aside from what was stated here (suspension, auxilliary fans, engine supports, fan and timing belts, etc), also check the status of the aircon/compressor. yan ang medyo waterloo ng singkit models.

consumption ng GTi/GLXi is around 8 kms/liter city and around 10 kms/liter highway.

1600 cc po yan. yung EL variant ng singkit ang 1300 cc.

Pards, check mo din iyong rubber nya sa may mga pintuan kasi may kaibigan ako ganyan ang sasakyan. Sila ang first owner. Pagdating nung mga year 2000 pag umulan eh tumutulo na sa loob ng kotse, dumadaan iyong tubig sa sides.

yeah get the GTi model... mukhang sa era na yan maganda parehas ang GTi models ng Lancer at Galant... white or silver colors are preferrable

[alwayz_yummy]
