Well, that's what the 'munchers call an "Outlander" innit?

Mitsi is fetching out several new models in the next couple of years and this is the first. Starting at about £17k with all the toys.
Bet Land Rover are kicking themselves not registering tht name.
Mind you with a name like that will the munchers buy it?

The 2004 Outlander is powerful proof that Mitsubishi isn't afraid to break the rules. Who says you can't couple the ride comfort and engineering precision of a sedan with the versatility and sense of adventure of an SUV? Outlander doesn't just crossover traditional automotive boundaries; with more power for 2004, it leaps over them!

Outlander's new 2.4-litre, 16-valve MIVEC engine adds 20 more horsepower, enhancing Outlander's overall driving dynamics. Plus, with available all-wheel drive, Outlander is always prepared no matter what conditions you're driving in. Outlander also boasts a great deal of standard features; including the innovative Sportronic™ 4-speed Automatic Transmission with Adaptive Shift Control and clutchless manual shift mode. Basically, that's just a fancy way of saying, "you're in charge." Outlander's spacious interior features the conveniences of 60/40 split-folding rear seats, a generous amount of cargo room and a low tailgate height (under 31-inches) that makes loading and unloading a snap. And since you're able to seat 5 adults comfortably, Outlander is always ready to go, whether you're crossing the country or just crossing town.


Valuewise, it makes the Floda look sick I'm afraid.

Here's a picture of some Outlander girls - Munchers please don't look in case they are Sassenachs as well. Don't remember seeing these in Star Wars. Love the welding PPM, but wheres' the wand gone?

Can't say I go a bundle on the name Sassenach. It's hardly a term of endearment, is it? I know that linguistically it is an OK expression, but then negro and its derivatives are correct enough linguistacally, but hardly words you would use in polite company.

A SASSENACH'S SOLILOQUY ON SCOTTISH SKIRTS
John Bull stands and gapes and stares
At Jocks in frocks adorned with squares
'Be-shrew me now' I heard him say
'Canst be true-are Gordons gay?'

He pondered on the wintry wind
On Scottish botties most unkind
And mused upon the wintry darts
Refrigerating private parts

His tortured mind with thoughts did press
Upon the Caledonian dress
Long did his noble spirit muse
'Why the kilt, why not the trews?'

O gentle reader do not lack
A warning from the Sassenach
To deride the kilt doth much displease
The owners of the bony knees

To laugh at haggis is fair game
But tartan kilts are not the same
My final verse, may it advise
To mock the Jock is most unwise

On Flanders Field in world war one
With bulging eyes the startled Hun
Saw screaming through the shot and shell
The feared and fearless GIRLS FROM HELL

aye, the Germans were heard to say when running from the field, "If that's the women, I'm not fighting the men!"

But still the kilt looks better than wearing white half mast trousers with bells at the knees and waving a hankie!
