Enye yeemodeli ezifikelelekayo kwimarike yaseMntla Melika, i Mitsubishi Space Star (okanye iMirage njengoko yaziwa e-USA) ikude ukuba ichazwe njengomgqatswa oqhelekileyo ukufikelela iimayile eziphakamileyo, kuthathelwa ingqalelo imilinganiselo yayo kunye nobume besixeko.
Nangona kunjalo, ngokungathi ukubonisa ubungqina bokuba imbonakalo inokukhohlisa, iMitsubishi Space Star sithetha ngayo namhlanje ikwazile ukuqokelela iimayile ezingama-414 520 (iikhilomitha ezingama-667 105) kwiminyaka nje emithandathu. Ithengwe entsha sisibini esivela kwiphondo laseMinnesota, iHuot, le yakhethwa ngenxa yokusetyenziswa kwayo okuphantsi kwaye yathengwa endaweni ye… Cadillac!
Ukuya kuthi ga kwi-7000 yeekhilomitha (malunga neekhilomitha ezili-11,000) imoto yayisetyenziswa kakhulu nguJanice Huot. Nangona kunjalo, ngokufika kobusika ngo-2015 (eMinnesota ikhephu kakhulu), wakhetha ukuthenga i-Mitsubishi Outlander Sport kunye ne-wheel drive yonke ("yethu" ASX) kunye ne-Space Star encinci yaphela isetyenziswe ngumyeni wakhe, UJerry Huot, yonke imihla emsebenzini.
Igcinwe kakuhle kodwa akukho frills
Ngenxa yokuba umsebenzi kaJerry Huot kukuhambisa iisampulu ezisuka kwiiofisi zoogqirha ezahlukeneyo zisiya kwiilabhoratri kulo lonke ilizwe laseMinnesota kunye nesixeko saseMinneapolis, ayimangalisi into yokuba iMitsubishi Space Star encinci iqalise ukuqokelela imayile “ngokungathi bekungekho ngomso”.
Bhalisa kwincwadana yethu apha
Ngokutsho kukaJerry, ummi waseJapan akazange anqabe ukusebenza kwaye wade wakhonza ukuthutha amatye kunye nesichumiso kwigadi yesi sibini. Nangona isoloko ifumana ukugcinwa kunye nokulungiswa "ngexesha", akunakutshiwo ukuba i-Space Star "i-pampered", ingenalo ilungelo lokulala egaraji, nditsho nangexesha lobusika obufunwa yiMinnesota!
Ukugcinwa okucwangcisiweyo kubonakala kuye kwasebenza, njengoko ulungiso olungacwangciswanga kwafuneka lwenziwe ngezihlandlo ezibini kuphela. Eyokuqala yafika malunga neekhilomitha ezingama-150,000 (kufutshane neekhilomitha ezingama-241,000) kwaye yayibandakanya ukutshintshwa kwevili elithweleyo kwaye enye yayithatha indawo yemoto eqalayo phakathi kwe-200,000 kunye ne-300,000 yeemayile (phakathi kwama-321 amawaka kunye neekhilomitha ezingama-482,000).
Eyona nto ingcono kakhulu, ekubeni i-Huots yayibambelele kwisicwangciso sokugcinwa okucwangcisiweyo kunye newaranti eyandisiweyo, zombini ukulungiswa kwenziwa phantsi kwesi siqinisekiso.
Sele unayo ifakelo
Ngepleyiti yelayisenisi eyenzelwe wena "PRPL WON" (ifundeka ngokuthi "Purple Won", kwisalathiso esicacileyo kumfanekiso wayo otsala amehlo), iNkwenkwezi encinci yaseSikhathini iye yathatyathelw' indawo yi... enye i-Space Star! Eyona nto inomdla kakhulu kukuba, ukugweba ngamazwi kaJerry Huot, loo nto yayingeyonxalenye yezicwangciso.
Ngokwale akhawunti, i-Space Star "isitya seekhilomitha" saye sathengiswa emva kokuba uJerry esithathile kumthengisi ukuze alungiswe kwaye umnini wendawo waqaphela umgama wayo ophezulu.
I-Huot kunye ne-Space Star yabo entsha.
Eyazi ukuba kunokwenzeka ukukhuthazwa ukuba umntu ohlala kwisixeko esilula kunye neekhilomitha ezininzi eziqokelelweyo, umninimzi wagqiba ekubeni acebise ukuthengwa kwe-Space Star kwaye waqinisekisa ukuba i-Huot iya kuthenga ikopi entsha ngexabiso elikhangayo ngokukodwa.
