Used 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Consumer Reviews
Just a review
The car is reliable and fun to drive
Great and fun to drive!
This vehicle has responded and performed very well. When 4-wheelin' the wheels grip and don't let go and we have been in some hairy areas! I suppose my only complaint is that the console should be longer to rest my elbow and I wish the resale value was higher.

Best value I have found
I could not have found a better deal than the one that I got on my Mitsubishi Montero Sport. Its power lacks a little, but it drives like a well, not like an SUV, and it's a 'small' SUV that's easy to park but still has room for my luggage, supplies and a sound system for my gigs. I've had no major and almost no minor mechanical or electrical problems. The interior is very comfortable, even the seats on the 10-hour vacation drives. HINT: look for a 'program' (rented) model if you can find one in good condition - mine was 1yr old & had 13,000 miles on it for $21,000. My long-time mechanic says it should last me another 6-8 years if I want it to.
Good deal...except for...
4wd, torque and stability are superb. Ride comfort...the seats are better than you'll find in most luxury vehicles. Unless you have a 3.5l engine, you'll find the Montero Sport is severely underpowered. I have had numerous nagging electrical problems: -replaced headlamps (bulbs) 6 times -replaced right headlamp -replaced front parkign lamps -replaced all brake lamps -replaced taillamps -4wd switch malfunctioned, replaced -interior lighting shorted, repaired -antenna needed replacing I have had to replace brake pads more often than I would like. The chrome grille began to peel, but my dealer replaced it for free.
great ride
