Used Mitsubishi Outlander cars for sale ...

The standard automatic gearbox has just four ratios, so you need to work the engine very hard and then it sounds coarse and strained. The car’s not even that great to drive. Its raised ride height and tall body mean it leans a lot in bends, the firm ride fidgets around town and the steering is too light. Decent refinement at speed is one of the few saving graces. The cabin is less attractive than many rivals’, but at least it’s all well laid out and there’s decent space inside. However, the small rear doors make getting in and out tricky, and loading larger bags into the boot is awkward because of the narrow opening.

Running Costs
The Outlander’s rivals, such as the Subaru Forester and Toyota RAV4, generally had smaller engines and manual gearboxes as standard, so the Mitsubishi typically has worse fuel consumption, doing just 28.0mpg, and it has no diesel option. However, the Mitsubishi’s one advantage is that, at any given age, it is generally cheaper to buy than rivals that were similarly expensive as new cars. The trouble is you’ll need to recoup a lot of money that way, because insurance bills and regular servicing look costly on the Outlander. Although you shouldn’t need too much unscheduled maintenance, if you do, it will probably be costly. A leading warranty company tell us labour rates at Mitsubishi dealers are only a little higher than average, but the cost of repairs is very high more than those for not only prestige brands, such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz, but also for other 4x4 makers, including Land Rover and Jeep.
