About the 2009 PERODUA KELISA
The 2009 PERODUA KELISA is a city car with a 989cc petrol engine. 37 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2024, making it a rare model on UK roads. It sits in the bottom 85% of 2009 cars for MOT pass rates.
With an average of 53,011 miles at 15 years old, PERODUA KELISA 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.
2009 PERODUA KELISA Fuel Costs
The modest 989cc 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 2009 PERODUA KELISA?
Total estimated annual running cost is £1,540 (£128/month), broken down as £955 fuel, £30 road tax, £55 MOT, and £500 predicted repairs. Repair costs are moderate, reflecting the 70% pass rate. Keeping on top of servicing will help avoid surprises.

Buying a Used 2009 PERODUA KELISA
At 15 years old, the PERODUA KELISA is firmly in budget territory. Purchase prices are low, but check for rust, worn suspension bushes, and electrical gremlins. A full service history is especially valuable at this age. If you're flexible on year, the 2007 model has the highest pass rate at 78%. Note: with only 37 tests in our data, these figures should be treated as indicative rather than definitive.
