About the 2019 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE

The 2019 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE is a city car with a 1193cc petrol engine. 1,674 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2026, making it a reasonably common sight on UK roads. Among all cars from 2019, the average MOT pass rate is 90%, and this model beats that benchmark.

With an average of 23,930 miles at 7 years old, MITSUBISHI MIRAGE owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.

2019 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE Fuel Costs

The modest 1193cc petrol engine keeps fuel costs low, which is a real advantage for a city car. Expect around 50 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £955 per year at current petrol prices of 142p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year).

What does it cost to own a 2019 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE?

Total estimated annual running cost is £1,405 (£117/month), broken down as £955 fuel, £195 road tax, £55 MOT, and £200 predicted repairs. The low repair estimate reflects the excellent 92% pass rate. These cars rarely fail their MOT, so unexpected bills are less likely.

MITSUBISHI MIRAGE Reliability Trend

Buying a Used 2019 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE

At 7 years old, this is a solid used buy if you find one with good service history. Depreciation has levelled off, so you won't lose much more value. Focus on condition over mileage. If you're flexible on year, the 2020 model has the highest pass rate at 95%.

Common Issues to Watch For

Based on the 2019 MITSUBISHI MIRAGE's fuel type, age, and engine size, these are the most likely problem areas to check.

Coil Pack Failure

Medium risk

Smaller petrol engines are prone to ignition coil failures, causing misfires and rough running. Replacement is £50-£150 per coil.

Suspension Wear

Medium risk

Shock absorbers, springs, and anti-roll bar links typically need attention around this age. Listen for clunks over bumps and check for uneven tyre wear.

Service History

Low risk

Always request a full service history. Regular servicing is the single best indicator of how well a car has been maintained, regardless of mileage.
