2003 Daihatsu Mira Gino
160,XXX km
Automatic transmission
It gets between 30-35 MPG, I calculate it every fill up. Good for commuting.
Blue paint, clear coat is starting to come off in the front but I think it kinda adds to the island vibe charm! Came from mainland a few years ago so there is very little rust underneath.
Upholstery is tan with plaid pattern in inner seat area. Faux wood steering wheel and dash. Over the past couple years I did some junkyard dives to collect the little various chrome pieces to replace the black plastic parts inside (IE: trim around the shift knob).
I have an additional grill with fog lights and the switch for it, just needs installation, will include it if you want it. I also have an extra chrome piece for the trunk door centerpiece, in the pic its just a little crescent but the extra one adds in the Daihatsu “D” logo, will also include if desired. The power windows work fine, but I collected several spare switches from junkyards since apparently these go bad often, although I’ve had no issues (will come included). The roof rack is a rare custom Mira Gino specific build. Has a little Gino logo going over a bumpy hill on it, made of thick metal, not the usual little wirey ones you see on Ginos (no, not separating it from the car for separate sale). Has a custom arm rest between the front seats (Ginos do not have arm rests standard) and this helps make for a real comfortable ride, along with another cup holder and storage space.
I had the JCI done a few months ago. It cost over 200000yen (about $1500). The mechanic told me, “Well, we replaced just about everything that can possibly be replaced, so you should be good for a while!” New timing belt, rotors, brakes, fixed power steering, boots, etc. etc. All four tires are brand new last year and only have a few thousand km on them.
Main downside is the stereo touch screen stopped working. The speakers work fine, it just needs a new stereo deck. I’ve just kept a small JBL in there are and that has been more than sufficient. Not sure about previous owners, but I always regularly changed the oil and took good general care of it.
I’ve been using this as a commuter for a couple years, selling because I now take my daughter to/from school and got a bigger car. Not a PCS/rush sale, not considering low balls but I can be a bit flexible on the price.
Currently a kanji plate under my wife’s name, we can change it to A-plate if you are SOFA status. Please message to view or if you’d like more pics. Thanks
