Description
Selling my beloved mitsubishi colt 1.5 diesel as now driving a manual car. It is HPI clear and the bodywork is decent for age but has some scratches as expected of a car of this age - underneath is solid and is decent condition for age. This car has never let me down in my ownership of 2 years and is mechanically perfect and very well taken care of - having driven both short and long distances and it will take you anywhere. It actually has the 1.5 diesel mercedes engine (yes, mercedes) - which is known for their very strong reliabbility, better and more torque than the petrol equivalent if you do not live in the ULEZ area- this is not ULEZ however. For the MOT I had also given it a fresh service using 10w40 castrol oil and also it has had 2 new tyres, new light bulbs front, handbrake readjusted, sills welded and also mechanically checked (no faults), next MOT due in 2025 November. It also recently had a new gearbox actuator and steering rack which isnt cheap but just to show no expense was spared to maintain my colt. The engine runs sweet with no misfires whatsoever hot or cold and the automatic gearbox works fine as it should in both manual and auto mode and car returns about 55 to 65 mpg which is very economical. This little car can also be used as a van with rear seats fully folded up lining the front. Suspension is also tight and everything works on the inside including heating. The interior radio display however is somewhat intermittent, that's about it regarding the not so good stuff. It's a perfect car for a first time driver or something looking for a cheap automatic runner, decently maintained and cheap to run, no money needs spending for the next 5 to 10k apart from another service probably (I recommend a service every 5k as i have done but its your choice. Any questions please ask and happy to answer and reasonable offer is welcomed. Ideally want a straight sell but happy to px. As currently looking for a decent camper van. Thanks for looking. Next MOT due 12/11/2025, Grey, 5+ owners, £1,150
