OMG there is a place reserved in hell for that bloody water trap under the brake light!!! I slide the chamois in the crack to try and soak it up, but no matter how much you try there is always a dirty dribble down the back the next day!

I'm sure this has been brought up before, but I really hate the lack of sound insulation in our cars.

Sure, the aural features of the world are beautiful and whatnot, but I don't want to be able to hear the domestic quarrel in the house on the other side of the road through mild rain and closed windows (true story).

Then there's the fact that since I can hear everything on the outside, the whole neighborhood can hear everything on the inside - and judge my choice in music.

Also: The doors are too damn light (probably because Mitsubishi didn't put in any soundproofing materials). Closing the doors involves an 8 metre run-up for me.

PS: debonaire, your last sentence made me giggle.

That's why we didn't get a sport back although would love the extra boot space!

I dislike/hate the tiny Ralliart sticker on the back. Wasn't a problem taking it off and putting on a chrome one though :)

Ill throw in a few of my dislikes,

Having to press the button to get the aux up every time you start the car, and the fact that you can't buy a black RCA cable anywhere! And the ones you can buy are like 4m long!

Washing drips annoy me as well specially under the mirrors. You have to watch it for like a hour after washing and keep wiping the drip marks off lol.

That my speakers are starting to make funny noises when the volumes over 22.

And lastly the boot sensor push button doesn't always work, oh and the suspension makes funny noises as well sometimes, I've also heard it make the same noise on a Mitsubishi triton..

:D

CONS
No clock
Crap sun visors (like really really crap = a throwback to the 70s)
Bit noisy (I forgive it !)
Visibility out back (parking camera so I forgive that too :D)
Rear drip zone from brake light - leaves ugly streaks

PROS
The Drive
The Looks
The economy (yes really) - even at 200bhp I get 50 mpg - gawd bless the diesel turbo and a great engine remapp :D :D :D )

Well i guess is my turn now! Not sure if this problem has been listed before, but here i go! C pilars are too thick/big and i found it hard to check the traffic from the RHS especially before roundabouts
