The MITSUBISHI LANCER (2008-12) 5DR SPORTBACK 1.5 MPI 107 JURO is a five-door petrol hatchback, offering a practical alternative to familiar family cars such as the Ford Focus, Vauxhall Astra and Honda Civic. It combines everyday-sized dimensions with distinctive, sharp-edged styling, and sits in the mainstream used-car market rather than the small city-car or SUV categories. It should suit commuters, couples and small families needing useful rear doors and a roomy boot, while the 1.5-litre petrol engine’s 107 horsepower is aimed at straightforward everyday driving rather than sporty pace. Juro badging identifies a particular version, but buyers should check the individual car’s equipment and condition, as these can vary. mycarcheck.com records 44 checks across 24 distinct cars: a useful, though modest, sample.
