Just in case anyone wanted to know how Muddy's float thingy worked.
 In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

Don't damage a tyre or you have to replace all four

2014 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Atlantic Grey, replaced with 2018 Frost White Outlander PHEV, can't fault em - now gone
2012 SDV6 HSE in Orkney Grey, Privacy Glass & Side Steps (notice a theme)! - Even better but now gone
2009 TDV6 HSE in Stornoway Grey, 20" alloys, Privacy Glass & Side Steps - Fantastic! but gone

Sure it said same in LR handbooks too

Just done 76 miles this morning with full battery when I set off

For anyone interested - today I did 165 miles starting with full battery and as you can see my average mpg was 44.2 which is pretty good for a 2 tonne petrol suv IMHO and certainly better than I got out of the DS

If I had recharged after first leg it would of been a lot better

So what's happen to this thread, has it run out of steam a bit like Muddy's float ?

Looks like I will have to start reading about Range Rover Sports now instead.  In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures

I think it closed due to lack of interest

I was worried about this purchase - it's a big leap after so many LRs - buying a DS after 2 RRS was bad enough but I thought buying a Mitsy was a step too far however it's looking like I made the right choice

I've even stopped looking at Series and XKs for now because this is so cheap to run and comfortable I'm not sure I can live with 20 mpg in a cramped vehicle  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Ok - honeymoon over

I'm trying to swap tyres as the milk float comes with summer tyres

The only all season tyre available is VREDESTEIN QUATRAC 5 but reading reviews they're not great in the wet so that leaves 2 sets of tyres best option

Rang two dealers to be told you can't swap tyres fitted until I pointed out in the handbook it says winter tyres are recommended in..... you guessed it - winter. At this point I was offered a set of matching alloys for £2674 - without tyres

In the handbook it shows 16" or 18" options but dealer says only 18" can be fitted - yeah right

So I go on net for half a day and find this in NL https://shop.mitsubishi-motors.nl/cat/band...t%2Fbanden with lots of options until I realise the price is per wheel not set

Looks like I swapped one useless dealer network for another useless dealer network

Still enjoying the PHEV though until it turns icy at least  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

I had a look at the Dutch Mitsubishi site and by the looks of it the tyres are being sold as a set and not as individual tyres. They do indeed mention that cars that come with the 16" factory fitted can't have the 18" and vice versa.

For example this: https://shop.mitsubishi-motors.nl/product/...ander-phev - Is for a winter tyre set - ASX type rims with Hankook 255/55R18 tyres

If you need any help translating Dutch feel free to shoot me a message

That's great Luckse

If that's a set then that is a great price and definitely cheaper than a UK set without tyres
