have covered 15+k odd kms now. Have driven the car to trips outside Delhi/Noida besides the daily Noida - Gurgaon :
Noida - Lucknow - and back
Noida - Lansdowne - and back
Noida - Ramgarh - Mukteshwar - and back
YTD fuel average - 13.72kmpl.
Mileage on the Ramgarh/Mukteshwar trip which i did last week was 14.42kmpl.
Two services completed, the third will fall due soon. For the record total cost for the two: Rs. 1489 if i remember correctly. it wasnt above 1500 for sure, next to nothing really.
The car never gets "tired".
Excellent handling (which i have mentioned before but i cant tire of saying this. i wonder what Kartikeyan in his review in autocar some months back was thinking, people may disagree but then i wouldnt consider him to be an authority).
Highway poise is immaculate. I do get miffed when santro/swift/zen guys try and "compete" on highways, A 2Ltr engine Vs 1.something: the argument is a non starter.
Mitsubishi service (excel motors) is a little lethargic. they do take their time completing the service but i am not complaining as long as they do all the service rituals!
And they are very polite during the service. have received formal invites to their audi showroom launch and to that of the outlander. but then they dont have too many customers just yet
Mitsu has been a revelation. i never gave them a second thought till i went in for the Cedia.
We are now considering the Outlander as a buy next year, although my wife is very very keen on the Montero.
