  I love my Montero Sport - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By comatt - May 6 - 8:05 pm

  I have had mine for about 3 years, it has 120,000 miles and love it. It has been a great roadtrip vehicle, I have taken it on many 1000+ mile trips and it is comfortable, gas mileage could be better but it performs well. I have had no service issues with it, and have done all the regular maintanence on it. I recently changed the belts to find that the originals were still on it after 11 years of use. The interior holds up well; my leather seats barely show any wear and the buttons and dials all still appear new. This is a great SUV and I intend to run her for many years to come.

  By gl956 - January 13 - 9:40 pm

  bought my montero sport with 150,000 five years ago and i was a little bit skeptical but its was pretty cheap compared to all the other MS that were out there.. let me tell you that this truck is amazing.. it now has over 350,000 miles and feels like it can get another 350,000 more! im usually on the road alot traveling about 100 a day. and my mitsu is soo comfortable. my montero has leather interior with wood trimming all around. its a beautiful black (that looks like a sparkle green when hit with the sun) with beige moldings. im absolutely in love with it. i would recommend it to anybody.. oh and ive only had to replace the alternator because of an oil leak it had. (all monteros have it)

  held up well - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By rsr72 - December 27 - 2:00 am

  We have had the Montero Sport for three years now. It has held up well. Great interior, seats, and excellent paint quality. The gold paint looks almost as good as when it was new. Decent power, low wind noise and acceptable ride for a truck-based SUV. The Montero compares favorably to the other vehicles we have recently owned - a Toyota Tundra (poor gas mileage, horrible seats and so-so paint quality) and a Honda Civic (poor paint quality, interior rattles.

  Love This Vehicle - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Mora - September 3 - 12:10 pm

  I own this vehicle and absolutely love it. I have 73,000 miles on it now. I bought it used and although it does need bearings which seems a bit early considering the mileage I cant complain. It is absolutely the most comfortable car that I have ever owned and I have owned many through the years, including luxury cars. I am 5 2" and my hubby is 6 2" and we are both are extremely comfortable driving this vehicle. It gets very good gas mileage, too. I give it an A+++++++ all the way.

  Truck truck - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Lukas - March 4 - 8:26 pm

  Bought used w/ 70k miles, so far almost 30k miles later and still loving it, the only mechanical problem I have had was the small part in fuel pump (unfortunatelly I had to buy the whole unit $560 w/ repair). Nothing else done to the engine or the truck itself. I live in snow country - the bottom is rusty or should I say rustic... That amount of salt will eat alive anybody. Great comfort, great tow, perfect in the snow, 4x4 is fun to drive - I highly recommend to anybody. Ive seen models w/ 160k miles on them - the only thing - do not put syntetic motor oil, I noticed lesser performance... Not sure how it is possible, but the truck works better on regular oil... Its a keeper!

  Great SUV for great price - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Jasun - February 17 - 10:00 am

  I got my Montero Sport XLS brand new in 2000. The car looks great, I always get compliments. The power when i head up to the mountains is more than adaquate even with the air conditioning on full blast. Another great aspect is the fuel mileage. I am averaging about 20 to 21 miles per gallon!!! The ride is surprisingly quiet for an SUV. Great SUV, highly recommended. If you are in the market for a used car get the 2000 Montero Sport overt a 2001 or 2002. They have begun transforming the car to more of a Xterra type instead of a nicer 4 runner type. They offer less options in the newer ones. In my opinion the 2000 is the best Montero of all.

  Goody - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Derrick - December 24 - 1:56 pm

  My Montero Sport has been a solid performer over the years! It has good pick up and steering response. It is a little short on the turning radius though and it started to burn oil at 60,000 miles. Otherwise this truck has had very low maintenance cost. It has plenty of leg and head room for taller than average driver and passengers. The stereo is adequate and the heat/air is better than average.

  Nice SUV - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By nmt - May 23 - 10:00 am

  Very strong overall body built. Nice exterior looks. You would never be afraid to go anywhere with this truck on or off road.You can rely on its engine not to leave you cold on the road. Good suspension. The downside is the large turning radius. Cant maneuver quickly in a tight parking spot in one approach. The ac needs more time to cool off the interior in hot summer, unlike the Toyotas. Had some frustrating electrical glitches; like the auto lights on (dome light) when I open the pass door side. Alarm failed to arm during very cold winter.

  Must be strick manufacturing tolerances! - 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport
  By Mr.Fussy - January 7 - 2:00 am

  In a 3 year period my wife and I had a new Toyota 4 Runner Limited, Dodge Dacota 4x4, a Murc.Mountianeer and the Mitsubishi 2000 Sport XLS 4x4. Of all of them we agreed that the Sport had the best road feel, body tightness and general responce and efficiency in the overall drivability. Last year on a vacation we rented a Grand Cherokee. It was brand new and we were afraid that it would handle better then the Sport.It didnt.
