This is my second Mitsubishi Outlander, first one was written off. I find for the price and was you can get it is a very good car.

People say the 2.4L is a little underpowered but I don't really find this unless the aircon is on. Plenty of room when you fold the seats down, the interior is a little on the cheaper side, but I suspect it's like this because it's easier to clean.

Air-con is cold fuel economy is good, I think you will find the car will use a little oil but this is normal for most Mitsubishi's.

I brought it on the beach a little bit and it's done alright.

I am the owner of Outlander XLS 2012 and can't say enough about this lovely SUV. Spacious packed with features, 7 Seats. Good power and very cheap to run.

Will definitely recommend.

We bought this car new and have loved every minute of it. It handles well and is extremely comfortable as both driver and passenger. We fit our three kids along the backseats (two are in car seats). It is reasonably fuel efficient considering we do a lot of small trips (around 10l/100km). Would recommend this for families!

I have a ZH auto 2.4lt. It's great on fuel, we travel a fair bit to visit the in laws and it feels safe and secure on the open road. My favourite thing about the car is the fold down part on the boot. I have to pick up a lot of stock and supplies for work and it's so much easier to slide on the plastic strips. I had a 2008 outlander and regretted selling it almost immediately. I don't think I will change cars until this one dies, then I might try an challenger! But it'll definitely be another Mitsubishi. The dash is simple and well laid out, seats are comfy and I love that the back seats recline.

bought a 2011 ZH Outlander about 4 weeks ago. The model is XLS and I find it extremely comfortable for my wife and myself as we are late 60's. Everything is easy to operate and the auto is extremely smooth with that paddle action on the steering wheel when you revert to manual operation. The 2.4 is OK on the fuel so at this stage very happy with the purchase and also the yard I purchased it from.
After travelling to Queensland and doing 5850Kms I found the seats gave my wife and I a sore backside and back. Purchased lambswool seat covers and it did improve on the way home. Mechanically very sound with no problems at all and averaged 9.2 l/ 100kms.

I purchased the vehicle 2nd Hand, and I've had it for more than 6 months now. Its a 7 seater and really caters for the whole family. The dealer sales person was a little over ambitious, but hey we struck a good deal in the end and I've had no problem since. The good thing about the vehicle is that I find it more economical, and very smooth running.

Anyone have a problem with audio no longer coming out of the Fosgate system on a MY09 model.
No Radio, DVD or CD audio. Volume can be cranked up to max and no sound.
I can be without audio for a few months then all of a sudden it will appear but pretty much only until I turn off the car. At other rare times it will just be white noise. Doesn't seem to be a loose wiring issue.

I bought a 2007 Mitsubishi LS outlander brand new. My first problem was the rear window stop light stayed on continuously. Got that fixed. The front interior lights hum when I turn the ignition off. The back left hand window kept coming out the tracks. And now at 200,000kms the transmission has died and the service fella I spoke to said I was lucky as they don't usually last that long! It will cost between &6,000-$8,000 to fix!

Bought my second hand 2011 outlander. Greatest car I've ever had. Only problems have been from when its been to a dealership for service.

Last year I wanted to replace my 11 year old X-Trail so I looked at all the possibilitles. I wanted a large station wagon with plenty of room, comfortable, economical, full-size spare, proper handbrake, alloy wheels, upwards opening rear door, farly basic electronics (ie no stop-start or other unnecessary complexities) but including bluetooth, climate control and cruise control. The diesel was too expensive so I went for the 2.0L petrol. Paid about $26,100 for the auto model which was much less than competitors.
Gave me what I wanted at a good price.
Annoying rattle near the interior light fitting. Dealer failed to fix it at 12 month service so I fixed it myself. Took 30 seconds to fix once I knew what the problem was.

Bought New in 2009.2.5lt CVT .i have not had a single issue with this soft roader.
I now have 90K on the clock and still not a breakdown in site. local Mitsubishi dealer has got there act together & I would buy another/same car from them. I only have one complaint & that is CVT gearbox on mountain roads is truly horrible.

2011 VR-X V6 done nearly 90K km, no issues, broken parts or warranty claims. Plenty of power, reasonable service costs (about 1/2 of Subaru I previously owned, with similar fuel economy to 2.5 4-cyl Outback). Would buy again if they still made them (no more, only the PHEV is close).

A little noisy on the freeway, transmits through driveline into interior - can't hear the motor over the road roar. Sat nav is a little dated, does not support BT streaming.

Couldn't ask for more. Performs well, comfy, tows really well. Pretty powerful especially in sports auto mode. Mitsubishi servicing is a little pricey compared to my Holden. Uses about 10.5L / 100km
Overall a very very good car. Also the back is larger then most other vehicles in its size and also others. We fit more in the back of ours then our friends Kluger.
