Woodland Park, Colorado, United States

 

For sale is a sweet and extremely well maintained, garage kept, 1989, gas 2 doors, 4-wheel drive, 6 CYL, 20 to 22 MPG, a 5 speed manual transmission, SUV with only 174,421 miles and a clean and clear title. The engine and body are in excellent condition with most repair records from prior and current owner. She rides and drives very nicely and would be a fine reliable low maintenance car for a college student. Or, if you want to take it hill climbing this little thing goes anywhere you want it to go. At the time, this SUV was built for direct competition against the Land Rover and was rated the better SUV.

 

This 1989 Montero is a very rare and hard to find SUV in this excellent of condition. It shows less than average wear and tear than normal. It comes with the original owner's manual, jack and jack crank are original and in place. It’s a rare, unmolested survivor. This little SUV is tight, no rattles, bangs or squeaks. You will be amazed once you drive it.

 

You will love this classic Montero’s nice looks and great ride with fantastic reliability that is not produced in today's cars. The only reason I am selling this Montero is because I just bought a 4 door 1990 Montero with 195,000 miles on her. The only thing you must do is change the oil about every 3k and it can, as my old Montero, run forever. The 1989 Montero burns no oil and does not blow smoke on start up or while running.  A 1989 Raider (Montero) sold on eBay a couple of month ago for $7000+.  These SUVs are truly getting harder to find especially in this condition.

 

Please contact me with any questions. Bid with confidence!

 

Engine

 

3.0L V6 Engine. The engine runs excellent. All service and maintenance up to date:

 

Transmission

It has the original 5 speed manual transmission. It goes into all the gears perfectly with no slipping issues. 4Wheel drive works perfect.

Interior

It has the original blue cloth interior. It is in excellent condition with no cuts or tears in the seats or header. The carpets are clean and not soiled. The dash is crack free in excellent condition.

Paint & Body

The majority of the body is rust free less surface pits from road sand, grit and pebbles wear on the hood nose and around the windshield. Body paint is in very good condition less some new paint on the hood nose as seen in pictures. It does have some dents and or scratches on the body that could easily be removed with painless dent removal and some touch up.

Exhaust

I believe it has the original factory exhaust system and is in good shape with 0 leaks.

Suspension & Breaks

No problems with either. Suspension is tight and breaks are working just fine.

I will assist buyer in transporting and pickup if needed. If you plan to fly in and drive home then I will pick you up at Colorado Springs Airport and my Montero will get you back home no problem. My Montero SUV is sold as is no warranty.

 

Thank you for looking and feel free to ask questions.

Toyota, Honda, Nissan and more collaborating to increase fuel efficiency

Sun, 25 May 2014

Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Daihatsu have announced an alliance that will see a push to improve fuel economy from both gas-powered and diesel-powered engines by as much as 30 percent before the end of the decade.
The newly assembled Research Association of Automotive Internal Combustion Engines put the roughly $20-million project together, with the Japanese government committing to half the cost while the eight manufacturers will chip in the rest.
According to Automotive News, the automakers will team up and share basic research on internal-combustion engines in a bid to cut costs. Eventually, the results of the research will find its way into a production vehicle, although it's unclear just when we'll see the fruits of this partnership on the road.

Mitsubishi debuts Concept CA-MiEV, a new suburban EV with a 186-mile range

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

Mitsubishi is stretching the electric jellybean. For years, the i-MiEV was regular presence at Mitsubishi's auto show booths around the world, and the car rightfully earned its nickname because of its rounded shape. Today, at the Geneva Motor Show, Mitsubishi finally unveiled a version of the i-MiEV that looks much more more at home among the alternative-powertrain car fleet of the near future.
But there's more being elongated here than just the shape. The official range of the standard i (as the i-MiEV is known in the US) is 62 miles. The Concept CA-MiEV - where the CA stands for Compact and Advanced - is supposed to be able to go 300 kilometers (186 miles) from a 28-kWh lithium-ion battery and lightweight 80-kW motor/inverter/charger unit. This is kind of astonishing, given the range estimates of other compact and midsize EVs on the market today - most are in the 80-100-mile range. Of course, the specific test used to get the 186-mile result matters, too, since the regular i received 98 miles on the LA4 driving cycle range. The US-i has a 16-kWh pack.
The increased distance means that Mitsubishi is talking about the Concept CA-MiEV as the "suburban EV," with enough range for "about one week of driving for an average European driver." If you need more, Mitsubishi hints that the flat battery pack leaves room for a range-extender. Add in convenience features like WiTricity wireless charging and the ability for the car to send an emergency email if it's stolen, and you've got the commuting vehicle of the future. With a coefficient of drag of just 0.26 and boomerang lights, of course.

Chrysler de Mexico to sell rebadged Mitsubishi model in shades of Colt deal

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

Chrysler and Mitsubishi have had a close relationship since the early '70s. Back then, they partnered up to sell the Japanese brand's models under American names as captive imports in the US. Vehicles like the Dodge Colt, Eagle Summit, and eventually the 3000GT/Stealth twins and lots of other cars and trucks became the fruits of that alliance. In fact, the two companies still maintain a good rapport, as evidenced by reports of a new deal to sell the Mitsubishi Attrage, also known the Mirage G4, in Mexico starting in November.
The Attrage is a small, four-door sedan that borrows many of the mechanical bits from the Mitsubishi Mirage hatchback. According to Automotive News, the deal allows Chrysler to sell the model in Mexico for the next five years. The deal could be a win-win for both companies. Mitsubishi gets to use more capacity at its Laem Chabang, Thailand factory where the car is made, and Chrysler gets a new vehicle for a growing market with almost zero development costs. At this time, there's no indication of the new model's name in Mexico, though.
There's also still a chance the Attrage might make it to the US market as well. The automaker showed off the sedan as the Mirage G4 at the 2014 Montreal Motor Show ahead of promised sales in small-car-friendly Canada. The Mirage hatchback was introduced to the US in a similar way, debuting in Canada first and then crossing the border. While reviews for the Mirage have been pretty atrocious, it would still be interesting to see Mitsubishi further expanding its lineup in North America.
