The MITSUBISHI SHOGUN (2000-07) 5DR STATION WAGON 3.5 GDI ELEGANCE AUTO is a five-door 4x4 SUV, built for space and confidence rather than city-car economy. In the UK used market, it sits among family off-roaders such as the Land Rover Discovery and Toyota Land Cruiser, with a reputation for go-anywhere character. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 170 look-ups covering 103 distinct VINs, a useful sample of buyer interest. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £2,100 and average recorded mileage of 110,000 miles; average annual mileage is 3,000. The cars have had around four previous keepers on average, so checking each vehicle’s history and condition is especially worthwhile. The 3.5-litre petrol engine and automatic gearbox suit relaxed journeys and drivers wanting a commanding view, room for family or leisure gear, and rough-road ability. It is less suited to tight urban parking or fuel-conscious commuting, but offers a rugged feel compared with softer-riding rivals.
