GUI with a commandline, can't beat it. i mightily sympathise with you.

how? beats the hell out of me.

You got yourself a good deal and it will still be covered by Mitsubishi until its third birthday, so to speak. And, yes a few times i have had to search for that cap covering 12V socket, why could they not have made it a hinged affair i do not know. There are some irritating aspects of the Colt but i can forgive them as they are only minor issues, Front cup holders being one, but i still love the little'un. Hi Hazza Yes that blue 2009 Colt was from a dealer, i also disregard private ads, i tried to get my wife to show an interest but she wants a Suzuki Swift (strange woman, she does not like the Colt, mine being black she says it looks like an undertakers wagon, i hope i have a few years left in me yet) Ess, glad you like the Colt, i must confess to liking the blue colour, i have had numerous silver cars over the years so i got a bit fed up with them.

I check autotraders several times a week and must have missed that Trevor, unless it was a private which I don't check. Nice that is a good deal I believe.

Its had one lady owner and has clocked up a grand total of 21,500 miles since its birth as a '09' plate. It cost me £5280 to be precise, that price included two brand new continental front tyres and a quarter tank of fuel and its annual road tax. Its immaculate inside and out and it is a 5 door, i got a very good deal to be honest which is why i compromised on the colour I would have preferred silver but the blue colour is really growing on me. As ive only just bought the car i can not comment on its MPG yet BUT i can confirm its very nimble and certainly is no slouch when you require a bit of power. All in all the colt cleartec is very practical and very well thought out car. The one thing i dont like is the silly pop bottle type cap they used to cover the 12V car charger.

Is it a 3 or 5 door and what colour is it? The recommended tyre pressure is 2.4 bar (35 psi) which i find gives a harsh ride. I am running 2.2 Bar which gives a more comfortable ride, this i also found on the net yesterday confirmation of this pressure. In fact i will change the tyres to 195/60/15 when its time to change them as the lower 55 profile tyres do give a firmer ride, i will, of course, ask Mitsubishi first for guidance on this but i see no harm. I saw last week a 2009 Blue 5 door Cleartec with just 8000 miles for £4800 believe that was in the Manchester area, an absolute bargain. Shame there appears to be no way of uploading pictures on this site. Please share with us all the details of your Colt. Good luck with it, it'll grow on you. Hey Ess

Does it say anything in the manual? 2.4 bar is close to 35 PSI. Good question, I’m afraid I never had occasion to check. Does it say anything in the manual? 2.4 bar is close to 35 PSI.

The in car tech is fantastic, was wondering if you could help me though in finding what pressure the tyres are meant to be? It says 2.4bar on the inside of the car door that relates to roughly 34psi, is that correct?

You probably know the Mitsubishi dropped the diesel Colt in 2008, it was a 1.5 litre three cylinder engine which enjoyed brilliant reviews except the nasty auto box, maybe Mitsubishi shot themselves in the foot as there are die hard diesel fans out there that would prefer the perceived efficiency and economy of a diesel. I have tried to find the specifications and the bhp of the new 1.2 engine but unable to find any details, but they claim better efficiency with even lower emissions however i am a great fan of the current 1.3 so i hope the new 1.2 is as powerful and at the same time economical.
