Flexible and beautiful the Mitsubishi Outlander is a crossover SUV that is practical as well as a real head turner. The Outlander is also environmentally conscious and as such is the first PZEV rated V6 SUV on the market. Able to seat up to seven comfortably, the adaptive seating and large cargo space gives you the best of both worlds, all this together with 18” alloy wheels and a 650w audio system as standard.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2007

4 star review

Got this in 2007 and overall we have been pleased with it. The only real problem was that periodically you would be travelling at 70 mph and it would drop to 30mph and you could not go any faster. I had it in and out several times and it appears now at last to be fixed. As the lease soon expires I am considering buying the car. Just got its regular service yesterday at 62000 miles and was advised that the breaks and discs wil need to be changed in the next 3000 miles at a cost of circa 380 pounds and the cam belt will need to be changed at the next major service and that bill will be nearly a 800 pounds so need to bear that in mind.

Mitsubishi Outlander Warrior 2.0 DI.D 2008

4 star review

We bought our Outlander in 2008 after quite a lot of research into several makes and models. We liked the look of the car its performance and economy. It is a great cruiser, with the cruise control set at 70ish it will go up hill and down dale all day long and return 45 m.p.g. We have actually recorded on twisty, turney roads 50.1 m.p.g. The only problem we have experienced was a slight misfire at 64m.p.h., which was difficult to diagnose as the problem was so slight it wouldn’t register on the computer. However it turned out to be the Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve which was replaced and everything was fine thereafter. Overall my Wife and I like the car and have no regrets whatsoever that we chose to buy it.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2008

2 star review

Bought this car because we liked all the features it came with. Car as a car is good but we came across a very big problem when we were towing our caravan. It will be doing 60 mph on flat motorway then without warning drops to 30mph. This has been fixed: in France they changed the turbo valve but kept doing it the rest of the holiday. It has been in and out of garage 2 or 3 times since we got it, they say it is fixed and it does run OK until you go to tow. We are not towing above weight and car is 2.4lt. The problem still exists so will need to change cars as it is not reliable when on holiday or touring, which is a big part of our lifestyle.

Mitsubishi Outlander Diamond 2009

4 star review

I bought the 2008/2009 Diamond recently from a dealer. Have travelled to Poland/Slovakia/Hungary without any problems. The 2.2 Peugot Diesel Engine I would say is a bit unrefined and noisy. Leather seats are comfortable for long journeys. The only thing that I found defective was the roof DVD player for passengers. Something I have taken up with the dealer. But otherwise well satisfied with the Outlander.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2007

4 star review

All round versatile car which drives well. Funny how things start going wrong once the warranty period ends and Mitsubishi parts and labor very expensive. I suppose that is true for most modern cars these days.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2.2D 2009

5 star review

Test drove all cross country models and there was a battle between A6 Allroad and the Outlander. They bouth were very stable but the Outlander was more practical; 7 seats and a greate overall preformance. The price/value is not comperable between the cars.

Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 Di-D Elegance 5dr 2007

4 star review

Sharp handling and good grip together with excellent safety features sold this car to me. I decided to go for the Elegance as you get a lot more for your money than the entry level models, which seemed a little stingy on kit. A very good 4x4 for the money and not overly expensive to run for it’s size. Excellent resale value too has to be a consideration.
