Hi there,
I am buying a small car for my daughter to learn to drive. I bumped into the Mitsubishi I Car and it looks small and very easy to learn to drive and also has four doors to have passengers if needed. The fuel economy is also not bad. I found one selling privately and I plan to send it to aa for a pre purchase inspection before buying this.
Before going forward, may I know what you think about this car and are there any common faults found with this car? Because this is quite a special car, with engine at the back, and also such a small engine, may I know if there have been much complaints for this car?
Thank you

Hello I have not herd anything negative about the Mitsubishi I-Car it has a very small 660cc turbo engine with a regular automatic transmission. Although it is a small engine it may pay to ask your insurance company if they will insure a younger driver with a turbo charged car. This style of car is popular in Japan and is known as a ( kei car )
