steviebhoy 0 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 anyone got a l200? if so how do you find it? looking to maybe buy one.. 2007 model... I have 1, the warrior model. Holds its own off road but i haven't done any 'serious' off-roading with it, i have a Landy for that. Pretty comfy motor to drive and looks the part as well. Would say bad points are fuel consumption, space in the back seats and in two wheel drive the back end tries its hardest to kick out alot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DDD 4 Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Got a 52 plate, throw it into corners, never had a back end kick out yet (used to have a 5 series now that was fun). Anyway, back to the L200, great motor but definately needs a 6th gear. This is my 2nd Mitsi after 20 years of Landys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDFrain 1 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 up on the shoot on saturday one of the lads l200 (52 plate) got bogged down and it would not move conditions were very bad mind but what i found to be a problem was when trying to push it out the panels on the rear were flexing terrible, to the point were i thought they were going to crease. ended up using a jcb to pull it out, one thing i was impressedd with was the strength of the rear tubular bumber as the motor did not have a tow bar/eyes fitted we endud up putting the strops on the bumper and it never budged. the motors certainly look the bizz and the rear cab is a good size, one thing to remember is though get a decent set of tyres on it especially if going in the good stuff. a little bit of road noise and less mpg is a small price to pay john Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cant believe you have never had any bother with the back end kicking out mate mines is crazy. I do have the big wide road tyres on right enough which is probably the problem. Also its only pick up style and it doesn't have any cab on the back so its quite light back there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
