Faults:

Bought with delivery miles on the clock from new, everything looking rosy.

26000 miles ticked over and the injection pump disintegrated! £900 for the pump, £100 or so for timing belt and pulleys (while I was there I may as well fit them). Fitted all myself, dread to think of garage labour costs!

Touch wood, all is well currently, serviced every year by myself regardless of mileage. Custom straight through stainless exhaust after the original rusted away from the cat back; still on original the clutch and rear brakes. Aware of engine history, holding out as long as possible, as will be departing from this manufacturer for pastures new.

Faults:

Airbags bag sensor, fuel pump valve control, front shocks, rear spring bushes, timing belt.

General Comments:

Hit a rock the size of a house and it rolled over it like a marble. Gets through deep snow easy. Carries everyone and everything with ease. Love it.

Faults:

The vehicle was dealer maintained from new, including the cambelt change at the recommended interval.

8600 miles later the idler pulley failed, taking the cambelt and engine with it.

Idler pulley was not subject to any inspection or servicing procedure, so was a disaster waiting to happen.

The vehicle was effectively written off after 60000 miles and regular dealer servicing, as cost of repair exceeds the value of the vehicle.

Mitsubishi didn't want to know.

Avoid this vehicle and any Mitsubishi in general if you want a well cared for vehicle to last longer than 60000 miles.

General Comments:

Rear load area too short to be practical.

Very poor company.

Faults:

Stuck in 4WD at 19000KM. Main dealer had the car for 2 months, drove off the forecourt and shifted to 4WD, and it stuck again. Dealer had the car for another week. Covered under warranty.

Hose blew on the turbo at 27000KM. Covered under warranty.

Cylinder head cracked at 58000KM. Out of warranty. No comeback from Mitsubishi. 3200 Euro.

Oil pump gone at 59000KM. 690 Euro.

Stuck in 4WD again at 70000Km. 2000 Euro.

General Comments:

When it works I love it, but the amount of trouble I have had with it, I just hate it.

They fixed all the faults from the older model e.g. economy, turning circle, and rear seats, but the reliability has gone.

Faults:

Turbo pipe has worked it's way loose 4 times in as many months. First time Mitsubishi road side assist 'fixed' it. I fixed it the second time. Third time the garage replaced the pipe. Fourth time a Mitsubishi roadside fixed it.

The problem is the jubilee clip works loose and the pipe disconnects causing major lose of power.

General Comments:

Other than the problem with the turbo pipe, very happy with the L200 animal. Seats 5 very well and plenty of room in the back for work 'stuff'

Good layout in the cabin and plenty of extras.
