Sold I may live to regret this...cheap and cheerful 7 seater

[Wingz123]

I am having to reluctantly part with my 7 seater automatic Mitsubishi Spacewagon....why? Well its a ‘space’ issue!

 

My head has won over my heart and despite looking for one of these Spacewagons for so long I am letting her go as I just cannot justify keeping her what with my Audi and Avensis which too are capable of doing the same job.

 

Anyway, the car...

 

Just clicked over 120k and if you look up online you will see the MOT expires in September. I will put her through another MOT as know she will pass. I bought her needing a few jobs which most have been done (did them myself ) - fitted a new strut, new pads and discs on the front, full service, gearbox flush and fluid change etc etc.

 

She still needs a couple of jobs doing namely the rear passenger glass that shattered randomly for the last owner as he was travelling down a dual carriageway (there is a guy in Twickenham breaking one of these Spacewagons) and also when you go to start her on occassion you have to wiggle the key for it to completely engage (easy to do) and never not started on me. New starter motor has been fitted in the last 700 miles. I am useless when it comes to having to use a voltmeter - I am adamant it is a corroded wire that goes to the starter.

 

She drives perfectly and I would be keeping her if it weren’t for the Avensis and A6....

 

Bumpers are faded in places and have gone white.

 

Any questions please ask....cheap and cheerful 7 seater

Mitsubishi Space (anything) are vehicles for winners. Highly recommended.

Just like looking at a slightly larger version of my old blue Mitsu, bloody ace car that was.

[mitsisigma01]

Where is the Mitsi living at the moment please?

[Wingz123]

Have some more...

[Wingz123]

It is in Reading but can be collected from Birmingham too - I have a truck so car can be moved wherever you like - pm me for a quotearooney - I’ll look after you

 

Bluetooth head unit

4 new Hankook tyres in the last 2000 miles.

 

Would like first refusal please when whoever buys it decides to move it on...

DAMN I love this model.  But, reasons.  Would jump at it otherwise.

Dibs just in case things change...

[Wingz123]

4g63 engine I believe this to be. No oil leaks. No sweaty sweat between the rocker gasket either which is a bonus! Guy who had it before used it to drive 2 miles a day to work where he drove a van all day....then 2 miles back home again...which ultimately led to why he decided to sell....overkill for what he needed

heard horror stories of ludicrous MPG for these (low teens) is it true????

I wouldn’t say that bad no. I’ve been all over the place in it - round town and on longer journeys too - took if up to Birmingham the other week and I dont think it was bad on juice at all. I did notice that they dont have huge fuel tanks as I think from empty it cost me £51/£52 to fill up to the brim. Drove home from Birmingham to mine (105 miles from where I was) and the needle was sat between full and 3/4’s.

Haven't see one of these for years then this pops up and then one magically appears at my local breakers, window intact too !

Whereabouts are you mate?

[Volksy]

I had the version after this, and it was a great piece of kit. Economy wasn't bad (2.0) and drove well.

 

Insurance was cheap too.

 

GLWTS!

[gadgetgricey]

Air con and sunroof for the win.

 

Looks lovely by the way

[PiperCub]

If the Rover had've failed it's MoT big-time the other day I'd have been interested. About ten years ago we had a batch of these at work as crew-buses and they were very good little things, reliable and strong carry-alls. I nearly bought one when they were selling them off!

Little Sis sez: cheers but no    - new Duster buyage imminent...

[omegod]

Liverpool 

[Lord Sterling]

Wow! A former friend of mine's Dad had one of these. I'd not long got my driving licence and former mate knew how to drive, just, but didnt have a licence and we 'nicked' it one evening in about 2005 for a quick spin around Moseley in Birmingham. It was exactly the same as this, same colour, spec and an auto too.

[SierraMikeHotel]

These are brilliant family cars, my dad had one when I was a teenager. I remember being perfectly happy in the back of it, loads of space and loads of glass.

 

Not for me at the moment but that is an absolute bargain, good luck with the sale!

Absolute stone cold bargain

Second that. Good buy for somebody. GLWTS

[purplebargeken]

Just saying like. I loved my smaller version one.

 

If anyone wants to purchase this, then do a swap for a mk1 Galaxy 2.0 pez manual.............

 

It's a tidy thing with all the bits to make the inside a happy place once again.

 

Question: can those seats come out leaving a flat base?

 

Nnnnnnnnggggggg.

Sorry not been on here for a few days - a fever I can’t seem to shake off.

 

The seats can be easily removed by removing a bolt to undo but the seats do fold flat. Space-wise is cavenous - I have had two push along lawnmowers in the back (obviously with petrol mowers you can’t lay them on their side) so they had to be stood up correctly which they were!
