Paddy Galore! Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 I likee, although the earlier Japanese stuff does tend to rust, i'm just generalising there but be aware and give it a serious looking at underneath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgun Posted February 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 Cheers Paddy, your right about early Japanese as my old Toyota Colorado is proof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 We’ve a 2014 plate one and it’s been pretty good so far. Had a couple of issues with batteries draining and a calliper problem on the rear but other than that a good motor. Economical goes well and she who must be obeyed drives it like she stole it....

aga man Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Yep great cars. I also have one in 08 reg, exact same as the picture which is the warrior model. 2.0 vw engine, very economical and plenty of pulling power for towing . Engine is cambelt driven so maybe check that's been done. 60k or 4 years change interval. Put some general grabbers on mine and it goes well in the mud. Boot has drop down tail gate which is very good for the dogs . Nice car to drive, thumbs up from me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norfolk dumpling Posted February 23, 2019 Report Share Posted February 23, 2019 Although I'm not a big fan of hybrids I love driving the PHEV version and a few customers at the hire company where I work P/T have said will buy one when their car up for renewal. One lady said was pressing hubby to get rid of Jag XF estate and buy the Mitsy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
