Who said you can only travel when you are young and single? My neighbours are setting off on their travels with their 3 year old son, sounds crazy right? But they’ve decided to spend a year travelling as much as they can before the boy starts school and nursery. They have decided not to travel too far at the moment; they are going to set off on national trips around the UK in their Mitsubishi Outlander London.
The idea is that the short journeys will get the little guy ready for bigger journeys across the globe to America and Australia. To be honest I think there are lots to find out in the UK before you need to go overseas, and even then Europe has lots to offer before venturing further afield. Being a bit of a petrol head I’m quite intrigued by their choice of car, the outlander is not a common car so I decided to do some research, just for my own knowledge.
The second generation Outlander has been in production since 2005, it is a compact crossover based sports utility vehicle. It received four stars at the Euro NCAP car safety performance assessment programme. It comes with a choice of 2 diesel engines; both are 2.2 litre units with either 154 or 175 bhp.
As of last year Mitsubishi have been offering the Outlander in 2-wheel drive format, which is the first time since the model was launched in the UK. My neighbours have opted for the more powerful engine with 4-wheel drive, just to make sure they can handle all types of terrain. I have recommended they get a wrench fitted too, just in case they get stuck in a ditch or something.
