G'morning D, nice looking car that, looks the part as the squires chariot in the County Seat there.
I'm envious of you and C, the only reason we'd change the Outlander is to get an XT or similar for more oomph for SWM, Mitsi did an Outy 2 litre turbo so that another consideration though having such rare cars is a worry if something serious goes and Mitsi main dealer service dept is not exactly impressive, Outlander being broken are as rare as hens teeth.
If pot holes are knocking the Forester off course it might pay to get all 4 wheels checked for alignment might only be a fraction out, might explain the new tyres?
Mitsi Outlander 1 is very similar in suspension and drivetrain layout and one of its most endearing features (it needs some given its looks which only a mother could love) is that it simply goes where you point it whatever the road surface/camber/pot holes etc at whatever speed or road condition, the half worn tyres are worn evenly on all corners too, the lads Scooby Impreza was similarly determined to go exactly where he pointed it.
You've rediscovered the state of our roads used by commercial traffic again i see, appalling, little wonder that cars need the odd realignment...they could close the Belgian Pave and off road course at Millbrook and simply divert test cars via Ketterings urban main roads.
Glad you're happy with it though....LPG and full rustproofing if you like it enough?
