    Mitsubishi Colt Review, For Sale, Specs, Models & News in Australia

    FROM
    $4,620

    The Colt has been applied to a number of Mitsubishi models over the years, but the one Australians are most familiar with is the small hatchback from the late 70s and through to the 80s.

    The nameplate was reborn in the early 2000s and that model spawned a convertible and a spicy Ralliart version.

    The line-up currently starts at $4,620 for the Colt VR-X and ranges through to $8,470 for the range-topping Colt VR-X.

    Mitsubishi Colt FAQs

    I have a 2004 Mitsubishi Colt Plus. Can you tell me if it has a cam belt or a chain?

    The 4A9 engine fitted to your Colt has a timing chain rather than a toothed, rubber timing belt. As such, the timing chain should be fine for the life of the car, provided the necessary servicing has been carried out.

    Interestingly, the Colt Plus was never officially sold in Australia by Mitsubishi, so your car must be a private import from, say, Japan or even New Zealand.

    Can I use E10 petrol in my 2006 Mitsubishi Colt?

    Yes you can. According to the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industry’s guide, all Australian-delivered Mitsubishis with fuel-injected petrol engines built after 1986 can use either E5 (five per cent ethanol) or E10 (10 per cent) safely. By using this fuel, you stand to reduce your tailpipe emissions a little, use a percentage of renewable fuel (ethanol is largely made from farmed crops) and you may even save a few dollars over a year as E10 ULP is often a little cheaper at the pump.

    Best first car options?

    Do not buy a Cruze, or buy a European brand. They will prove costly. It's best to go for the cars that are well proven over many years. The Lancer is a good one, but so too is the Toyota Yaris or Corolla, Suzuki Swift, Mazda2 or 3, or Mitsubishi Colt.
