Mitsubishi
UK has introduced a sporty version of its L200 (Triton) dubbed “Walkinshaw Performance” that
will be available solely in the UK.
The special edition L200 has been developed by tuning specialist Walkinshaw Racing and it features a supped up version of the standard 136Hp 2.5-liter turbo diesel engine with a Ralliart kit that boosts output to 168Hp.
Walkinshaw's version of the L200 boasts heaps of standard equipment such as 20-inch alloy wheels and tires, sport leather seats, a DVD satellite navigation system with 7 inch screen, cruise control, a high-end stereo sound system (420 watts) with CD changer, bluetooth connectivity and stainless steel fuel filler cap, tailgate cover and door handle covers. (Wonder what value that delivers?)
The L200 Walkinshaw Performance will be available in Starlight Silver, Cosmos Black, Graphite Grey, Aztec Red and Sapphire Blue, with metallic and pearlescent paint as an additional option.
Pricing starts from $44,500 for the L200 2.5 DI-D Walkinshaw Performance Double Cab Manual without the Ralliart power upgrade to $47,000 for the full spec L200 2.5 DI-D Walkinshaw Performance Double Cab Automatic.
A recent trip to the UK by utes.com.au saw the GLXR equivalent on sale for around the $14,000 Aussie $ equivalent so we are not sure who is pocketing the extra dosh here.
