Build years & generations, side by side

Find the build years you're looking at and see which generation they are. You'll also see which group of build years the MOT figures come from.

  • Built 1998-2004

    Generation
    DG (1st gen MPV)
    Figures from
    cars built before 2005

    Counted with every car built before 2005, so much older cars can affect the figures.

  • Built 2005-2006

    Generation
    DG (1st gen MPV)
    Figures from
    cars built 2005-2008

    Counted with this generation only.

“Figures from” is the group of build years behind each card's MOT figures. Years where one generation gave way to the next can sit in a wider group until there's enough history to split them.

By build-year group

How each group of build years performs

Each card shows MOT results for one group of Mitsubishi Space Star build years. “Age” means the car's age on the day of its MOT, not its build year. “25+” groups every test on cars aged 25 or older.
