New Daily, NOT VW unfortunately (let the flaming begin)
I havent been on here in a while, lots going on......Here is part of whats been happening.
I needed a new daily driver and looked long and hard. It had to meed the following criteria.
Price
4 doors
economical
different
FUN
I looked at VWs and would love a Golf GTI or R32 or Passat R36 but price weighed heavily in the decision. The Polo GTI was also a consideration but
only having 2 doors ruled it out too.
I settled on a Mitsubishi Ralliart Colt. This thing is too much fun to drive, and really good value for money. The specs on paper dont really do it
justice. I cant believe how quick it is for a 1.5L and all that have been in it get the shock of their life.
Its unconventional styling isnt for everyone, but at least it isnt just another fuel miser for commuting to work in, it really meets the different
criteria.
