    And this one amuses me, given I live in snowless Brisbane:

    1998 - 2005 Mirage - still missed
    2005 - TL AWD Magna still paying for upkeep

    Pre `98 - non Mitsis including two Fords, a Toyota and a Daihatsu

    The writer, David Morely of Motor Magazine gives the AWD Magna a rating of 7/10.

    Based on the $4,200(+ airfares from Sydney to Adelaide - admittedly with some marks/bodywork needed not affecting the way it drives) I paid for my TL AWD 3.5 years ago and it's reliability, features, comfort, performance, reasonable spare parts prices etc, I would be inclined to give mine a 9.5/10.

    Nothing else comes close, especially as I had 15 years direct contact with all sorts of cars via my job as a new and/or but mainly used car salesman(part of it spent at McGrath Mitsubishi Liverpool and Penrith Mitsubishi whilst in the middle of the 3rd. Gen. model series) to enable me to make valid comparisons.

    Duplicate post deleted, which has posted out of correct numerical sequence.

    Strange.

    I think I see now.

    Queensland is not daylight saving, but the post by "an observer" is treated as being in DST according to my computer.
