Anyone had any dealings with the mitsubishi L200? how good/reliable are they, expensive to repair etc.......

Problem about getting new ones I read in the paper? Or what? Is it just a matter of grey imports undercutting the official ones? The story seemed a bit technical and didn't really say.

By the paper, I mean here obviously...

I have been thinking about getting one to pull the horse box but am unsure how I would cope living with one as my main car. I hired one (old shape) last year for a couple of weeks and loved it

They are very highly regarded in this part of the world (New Zealand). One of the best sellers in its class here, and they go for years. Recommended.

Seem to be ok in general altho best to keep up with servicing. Most criticism that Ive heard is about the driving experience, both in comparison to cars and also other pickups.
I note that a customer of mine has a fully serviced Warrior model which is now showing 60k - nothing wrong as such but when its left for more than a day, its a pig to start and when it finally does fire up, serious clouds of smoke, but once its going its fine. Usually have to let the glow plugs burn twice aslong as the book says to get a result.
I think thats disappointing as my old Astra van had the same fault, but it didnt happen until 115k.

Friend had one for 70k miles, Apart from routine servicing, nothing else was done to it in anyway. It was built like a tank. I borrowed it for a 700 mile in a week trip. I still have back shoulder and hip problems. Comfortable driving postion it dont have!
