The MITSUBISHI SPACE STAR (1999-04) 5DR MPV 1.6 EQUIPPE is a compact, five-door people carrier, sitting between a small hatchback and a family MPV in the UK used-car market. Its tall shape and practical cabin make it more versatile than city cars, while remaining manageable for everyday driving and parking. In mycarcheck.com data, 11 look-ups covered 10 VINs, so these figures offer a snapshot rather than a definitive picture. The cars checked averaged 86,000 miles, around 5,000 miles a year, and over three previous keepers. The private-sale valuation was £600, suggesting an inexpensive older-car option, with condition and history important. The 1.6-litre Equippe suits couples or small families needing flexible space for commuting, errands and occasional longer trips. Its roomy, upright layout is a key attraction against conventional small hatchbacks, though newer compact MPVs may feel more refined and efficient. Look for careful maintenance and a reassuring inspection before buying.
