Seen parked in Ipswich this afternoon.
Difficult to appreciate how large it is from the one rushed picture I was able to get. It was HUGE.

Incidentally, the writing on the side said "Walkinshaw" - I've heard of them - are they a racing team or something?
It's a Mitsubishi with an 09 plate, and I think it said something like LS200 on the back, but I thought that was a Lexus.
Hope I don't ever see another one. :( :( :(

Mitsubishi L200 :y I like them without the stupid pick up cover,

That one for example :y
-
the one you saw jereboam eyesore i agree it looks like a pumped up beetle bug but if yer take that stupid cover off the back i think they look alright
-
The older style looked better. That new one looks like a jigsaw :( & someone's put the pieces togother wrong ;D
-
I like them but Navara's are much nicer 8-)

I used to drive one at work & they're good motors. A little under powered for the weight they have to lug around. We had a V6 TDi Disco too, now that's a different animal 8-) The torque curve & turbo kick in at around the same time, they bloody shift for a big motor :y :y

I don't go for 4X4's, i think they should only be for farmers & those that need them, but i must admit i did like driving it. Very comfortable & suprizingly good on fuel, even when towing around two & half tonnes of 5B recovery winch all the way to Gloucester :y

I'll bet you (like most of the country) were wishing it was a proper 4x4 on their drive 2 weeks or so ago ;D ;D

No. I get around when i want to very well thank you ;)

The best 4x4 ever is owned by a guy around the block from me. He has a new Dodge Ram SRT10 quad cab with the 8.3 litre V10 petrol engine from a viper 8-)
The sound of that thing is absolutly amazing :)

Looks very pretty, but one glance tells you it wouldn't cope with the slightest bit of adverse conditions whatsoever.

If it can handle 4 inches of snow it'll be fine around here ;D

When they came out they showed one off in the mags with the reg plate "A10CYL" on it. Later that year I saw it parked outside of the Sheffield arena when the Stones concert was on, it was parked accross a kerb corner and was flipping huge, being nearly twice the height of my car. :-/

The old L200 "Animals" are ok but i've always thought this new version appears to have had the back end tacked on as an afterthought & is basically pig ugly. As for the low profile rims & road tyres, why? The tyres won't grip off road & the whole she bang won't go fast or handle on the road.
A fool & his money.... ::)

The rims & tyres (along with the general body layout) tell you full well it will struggle to hold the road while it's raining, you don't stand a chance in rough/adverse terrain with them on it.

Playing with the throttle doesn't get the baby a new hat though ;)
