    Sell the car to Mitsubishi

    Just to update this, It would appear unless you are trading in your car mitsubishi are not very interested in the cars. I tried a few and had either very low offers or was told they do not buy stock other than from mitsubishi UK. Ended up trading the car in to the garage my new car came from...

    Sell the car to Mitsubishi

    Hi, Never really had to do this but after a year of owning the PHEV I have decided the car is not for me. Nothing wrong with it but since buying it my 4 miles each way every day is now much more and I am just not seeing the benefit from it being plug in able. It is a 15 plate GX4H with a...

    Caravan Towing experience

    I tow quite frequently, sometimes for track days and other times to take cars off to body shops, tuners etc. The first time I towed I used the charge button but now I find that as most the place I tow cars to are local I just leave it in normal and do not need any more power. Car tows quite...

    Other kinds of tail lights

    I know this is an ageing post but I do like these rear lights, after searching about I can now get hold of them but they are $600 USD before shipping. A friend of mine took a few photos in his home country "Taiwan" which is one of the few places they can be purchased ~ he is currently checking...

    Increasing capacity of batteries.

    I am one of those who want 100% EV mode and I did think that under the boot floor there is enough room for 4 ~ 6 cells as additional space which could be added without changing much and it would be a retro fit option - that I would go for. I really hate the engine coming on for my 6 mile...

    Lights not adjusting

    After several complaints from people that my lights are too high I have to agree. I noticed when towing that my lights are in the sky and people I pass are covering their eyes, if you keep adding loads to the boot the lights go up and do not adjust back down as I would expect. Surely this is...

    Tortoise Mode

    I tow quite a lot and with the maximum load, never had an issue Generally my normal drive is 6 miles each way and I drive it quite carefully and never use any fuel as I pre-heat every cold morning. I have been to Scotland and Dorset and drive to clients which can be 50 ~ 200 miles away. On...

    Best Ever EV Range

    Today was 18°c ~ 21°c I drove from Solihull to Alcester 17.3 miles according to Google and the sat-nav. Drove there and back with no A/C and in eco and use the regeneration up and down the scale. Some 60 miles and hour stints, the rest either 30 or 40 mph with few stops When I got home I still...

    What Have You Done To Your PHEV Today?

    The little light is really useful when the car is very dark as it just highlights everything like the drinks in the middle Has to be dark in the car though for it to be any use. Had the same thing in my last mini and my last bmw

    Best Ever EV Range

    I do not think it is a full tank, mine shows a full tank for ages and while the range goes down the bar can take ages before it moves

    Best Ever EV Range

    I normally get quite a high number, almost always in the 30's and I do get about 27 miles back most of the time but recently with the hotter weather this has been going up and I was pleased for the first time to get 43 on the screen and achieved between 35 and 36 to which I am sure I could have...

    Tow bar questions?

    Bumper is easy to remove, lights on the other hand were a nightmare, I could not grip them to pull them forward I fitted a detachable so can't help with the other question but I would assume the reversing sensors may pick them up as the wiring kit as the option to switch them off when the...
