This 2005 Mitsubishi Colt Diesel Hatchback 1.5 DI-D Equippe 3dr is offered to you directly from the Bank of Scotland who are the original owners from new.
This car has covered a warranted 14630 miles from new. The full HPI check showed no record of any major accidents, as can be seen (for free) on the clear HPI report. This car also comes with a history, and a valid V5 document. An independent RAC Body and Mechanical inspection has been conducted, for which the full details can be accessed from the left-hand side menu.
The Mitsubishi Colt has been completely changed in every way and for the better. Mitsubishi have always had a name for reliability and build quality, and this new supermini doesn’t disappoint. This is the 1.5 litre, three-cylinder diesel with a five speed manual gearbox. Don’t be put off by three cylinders, it pumps out 94BHP, which is a lot for these small diesel engines and will reach a remarkable 58.9MPG on a combined cycle. The tax rating is low, its only an insurance group 5 rated car and it boasts an impressive four stars on the Euro Ncap crash tests. These cars are also very practical, for a small car room inside is very impressive whether tall, short or have a family to transport. The rear seats slide forward so extra boot space is available if required and that will give you an impressive 645 litres of loading space. This vehicle also has the added bonus of still being covered by manufactures warranty
Finished in Illusion Blue with black cloth upholstery, air conditioning, drivers seat height adjustment, alloys, driver and passenger bags, radio CD player, electric mirrors.
