Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 2 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- Many journeys are local or relatively short: petrol can fit that use without choosing diesel just for occasional long trips.
- You need to carry tools or work equipment: this body type may suit. Confirm usable load space, payload and any commercial-use costs.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 2 people together: the advert records 2 seats, including the driver.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 22 years old and 70,876 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
- You regularly help children or passengers into the rear: fewer doors can make access awkward. Try your child seats and usual passenger routine before deciding.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The 2004 Mitsubishi Minica is a kei-class city hatch with a very small petrol engine (around 660cc) and simple manual gearbox — cheap to run but low on power. Many examples in Ireland are later imports from Japan, so expect right-hand drive and a lightweight construction; parts are straightforward for common wear items but some specific body or trim parts may need importing. Because the engine is tiny it struggles at motorway speeds and clutch/gearbox wear are common on older manuals, so check those carefully.
- Clutch engagement and gearbox synchros — test for slipping under load and smooth gearchanges
- Underbody and sills for rust (rear subframe, wheelarches and floorpan are common corrosion spots)
- Engine smoke or rough cold start (signs of worn rings/valves) and any history of overheating or coolant leaks
- Condition and age of tyres (often old on low-mileage imports) and brake feel on a longer test drive
- Confirm import paperwork and RHD features (speedo markings, heater/vent operation) and check electrics for flaky switches
