The holy grail! Base Canadian Mirage with no options: no AC, manual locks (no remote), wind-up rear windows, manual HVAC settings, no cruise, etc. Yet another cheap, used scratch 'n' dent special with high kms for its age (174k).
Colour: Frigidaire White. A littlle banged up, with rust creeping around the edges.
Front carpet: 50% sodium chloride
Aftermarket bluetooth thingy!
Stiff clutch pedal.
Yes. Possible fubar rear axle.
Stock Enasaves in decent shape. Two are much newer, so I will have to investigate rear axle alignment.
Squeaked it: 70.1! = 3.4 L/100 km.
I was very happy to see that Mirage #3 has 70 in it.
I cracked 70 a few times Mirage #2 as well. Its final tank was 78 MPG (made possible by much pulse & glide and alternator-off motoring - something I don't generally do).
We've passed the peak of warm weather though, so that might be it for eye-popping numbers for this year. Depends how much I drive the car in the next month or so. Next fill probably won't be until mid-late October.
