Used Mitsubishi Mirage for Sale

This is a very small-looking vehicle that packs in a ton of interior space. I'm really not sure how they did it, but it's totally bigger on the inside! We have the base model so it doesn't have a lot of the bells and whistles that are available, but by far the best thing about this car is the gas mileage. We typically get 35 mpg city and 45 mpg highway. It is awesome! It only costs $20 to fill up (it has a tiny seven-gallon gas tank) but it goes easily over 300 miles per tank so we don't fill it up any more often than we would our gas guzzling minivan. The finishings are basic but good quality and have held up well to the two children that regularly trash the vehicle as well as my husband's work supplies being thrown in and around the car. The trunk space is also massive for a car this size, I can fit all the groceries for us for the week easily inside. My husband has even fit a two-story folding ladder in this car by removing the front passenger seat and laying the back seats flat. Yep, the back seats fold down, making this already roomy car able to fit insane things... like the aforementioned two-story ladder. It drives very well, and we have put nearly 50,000 miles on it in about 18 months. Overall, we adore this car, and whenever it finally dies, we fully intend to get the same model in a newer year.

I've had this car for 17 years now. It gets normal city use and the occasional road trip. I have NEVER had a single problem with this car beyond normal wear and tear. I have a bad habit of not maintaining cars the way they should be - I have run this car a number of times on almost no oil and the engine still runs very well. It has never broken down. The worst that has happened is the battery ran down and I had to get a tow to get the car to the auto shop. It's a small car, but that often means I can get into places the larger cars can't.

It is very compact, which is perfect for parking in the city or having to squeeze two cars into the driveway on street sweeper day. It gets great gas mileage. I would say 30-35 city and 50+ highway. It has enough space in the hatchback for groceries, and the back seats lay down for bigger loads. My husband went out and bought a used one about a year after I bought mine new. So I guess you could say we like it!
