The paint code for Triton is ERT.
While looking for a picture of an XM in Triton, I saw this.
Those Mitsu's can certainly pull above their weight.

It looks like Triton green to me, the same as my SD I had from new.
It has 193k on the clock but feels quicker than my other car which has only 132k.
Same owner for the last 7 years and quite a decent amount of service history.

XUD engines were originally built for an average life of 300k miles (500k kilometres). Many go well past that.

I had a Xantia 1.9TD that went to 292k before the car dropped to pieces around the engine.
Present HDi Xantia is still being run in at 202k.
