The MITSUBISHI GALANT (1997-03) 4DR SALOON 2.4 GDI EQUIPPE AUTO5 is a roomy, four-door petrol saloon: a comfortable family-sized car rather than a hatchback or SUV. In the UK it sat among larger mainstream saloons, offering Japanese-brand practicality and a more substantial feel than a small commuter car. Its automatic gearbox makes everyday driving straightforward. The 2.4-litre GDI engine and Equippe trim give this Galant a more powerful, well-equipped character than basic family cars of its era, while the five-speed automatic suits relaxed journeys. It can appeal to families, couples or commuters wanting space and a comfortable motorway companion. As an older saloon, condition and service history matter more than badge appeal, and fuel costs may exceed those of smaller rivals. mycarcheck.com has four look-ups across two VINs, so its figures are only indicative: average recorded mileage was 104,000, annual mileage 2,000, previous keepers three and average private-sale value £600.
