Mitsubishi Colt • 1993 • 1 km • ₡ 1 CRC

This 1993 Mitsubishi Colt is 16+ years old, which moves it into project / collectible / hand-me-down territory. Pricing in this band has more to do with condition and rarity than age. Inspect for rust, frame integrity, and electrical wear — none of which the 1993 fuel-economy spec sheet will warn you about.

This listing is below the typical mileage band for a 1993 Mitsubishi — most Colts of this age show closer to 15-20k km/year. Low mileage is a price-supporting attribute but verify the odometer hasn't been rolled back (check service records and inspection-station logs in Costa Rica).

Alajuela, Alajuela is a smaller market — comparable Mitsubishi Colt listings are scarce, so this car can carry a small premium for buyers who can't find local alternatives. Be transparent about condition; buyers who travel for a listing typically expect what they see in the photos.

For an older Mitsubishi Colt like this one, prioritize: timing belt/chain interval (ask for the last replacement receipt), suspension bushings and shocks, brake-fluid condition, transmission service history, and rust on the rocker panels and subframe. A pre-purchase inspection at an independent shop pays for itself many times over at this age.

Costa Rica requires SOAT (or its local equivalent) — basic third-party liability included with annual registration. For a entry-tier Mitsubishi Colt, full-coverage private insurance on top usually runs 3-7% of the vehicle's market value per year. Quote with two or three carriers before listing day; rates vary widely by Alajuela.

Gasoline pricing in Costa Rica is moderate. For this Colt, expect monthly fuel cost to scale roughly with kilometers driven and the manufacturer-rated economy minus 10-15% for real-world conditions.

This is a private-seller listing. For a entry-tier Mitsubishi Colt, most private-sale buyers in Costa Rica pay cash or arrange a personal loan with their own bank — the private seller is not set up to handle financing paperwork on the buyer's behalf. Funds typically transfer by cashier's check or wire on handoff day.

In Alajuela, Costa Rica, you'll need the original title signed over by the seller, a bill of sale, a current emissions / safety inspection where required by Alajuela, a VIN-match verification, and proof of insurance to take possession. The state DMV or motor-vehicle agency processes the transfer; many do it the same day.

This is a private-seller listing — an individual selling their own Mitsubishi Colt, not a business. Treat it like any other person-to-person purchase: meet in a safe public location (a police-station parking lot is the gold standard), verify the seller's ID against the title before any money changes hands, and never wire funds before seeing the vehicle in person.

A 16+ year-old Mitsubishi Colt is past its depreciation trough — pricing from here is condition-driven, not age-driven. Documented examples of desirable trims can appreciate; rough examples stay flat or depreciate as parts availability tightens. Set the price by recent comparable sold prices, not by asking prices.

If the seller still owes a bank or finance company against this Mitsubishi Colt, the title has a lien recorded. Do NOT hand over funds before the lien is released. Standard practice in Costa Rica: buyer's bank pays the lender directly for the loan balance and pays the seller for the remainder, with the lender's release letter arriving alongside the new title. Verify the lien status through whatever public registry Costa Rica uses (DMV / DETRAN / Registro Civil / etc.) before agreeing to a purchase price.
