Mitsis have all marks of a better car than Surf. If you look at adverts they are usually better equipped, addons and instrument extras are more logical than in SSR trim levels. If you go to view one you'll notice seats are better (especially those with separate armrests for passenger and driver, oh mama), seating position is better etc. Some equipment levels feel almost like piloting helicopter. And of course they don't have trust stigma - you are not affraid they will blow their head off on longer journey.
Unfortunatelly being better car on the paper doesn't mean jack es. By the time you will force 2.5 or 2.8 litre Mitsi to climb up to 60 mph by nodding back and forwards behind wheel the seasons will change (literally, I think it's something over 19 seconds). And you'll never get to forget what you're driving - fridge on wheels that handles with grace of fishtank full of water...Last edited by v0n; 27 August 2004, 12:55.

A coleague here at work was contracting in the mid 90's in Libya and said that all the Japaness contractors had Surfs, and when they whent out to play they used to leave everyone standing.
That may be down to an element of Japaness lunicy, however at least they had the confidence in their Surfs to do it.
