It had been "valeted" for sale so had some shiny greasy crap over all of the hard plastics.

Woke up early this morning and couldn't help myself so went over it all with Bowdens Orange Agent and Vinyl Care.

Much better.

I want to do the leather as well but am waiting on some Duragloss shampoo to come from Care Care Products.

Will then give that the once over as per the VE.

Not a bad car at all and kudos to your son for driving a manual, that's a dying breed in today's day and age... Should also be more reliable than the Mini as well...

Yeah we have had a really good run from our Outlander. The biggest cost has been a cracked condenser, which is common on Mitsubishis and a few other Japanese makes. But nothing much else has gone wrong. Mitsubishi's seem to be really well made over the last 10 years or so.

I know of somebody with a Magna which is over 20 years old... It's blowing lots of blue smoke and is on its last legs, but the engine will refuse to die!
