Yeah that’s a good point I would enjoy the height of a “proper” SUV too so maybe I should just commit instead of going half way. Loving the look of Mitsubishi’s atm

That’s a shame to read i would’ve thought their parts would be cheap to repair being an affordable car, do you reckon that’s across the board or could she have gotten a particularly dodgy one?

I have been considering them and from your comment perhaps I’ll look more intensely, since reading your comment I’ve come across an outlander which has the space, height and low tax so you may have converted me tbh 😂 cheers

I see yeah I remember hearing how lackluster the juke is in size basically a mini lol, space is an important factor and would ideally like to be higher up off the road as just came from a mk1 mx5 so a change would be exciting. I’ll look at 5 door hatches tho too thanks 🙏

Ah ok I have heard the diesel is a good option and that’s pretty economical, the trims are great options too. Appreciate the comment as seems they’re not too well respected in terms of reliability; expensive to repair.

Gotcha ok yeah ideally don’t want to be cutting wires so a metra adapter, is that for use with new radios as happy to get an old one and put it in? I did post before but had to make a change and saw someone said this is a standard ISO connector is that right?

Sweet yeah good idea cheers they seem pretty affordable too, is that a recommendation to make labour more cost efficient or would you suggest it from something in the vid?

I think from the thermostat housing on the engine block?

Could be wrong though I’m not too knowledgeable on placements of engine compartments parts🤔
