So, i bought a Pajero

[Spinalguy]

91 Mitsubishi 4x4.
4.88 gears (factory)
Auto
2wd, 4wd hi, 4wd hi center diff lock, 4wd low cdl.
96,000kms
Just got it inspected...in/out excellent shape (only needs rotors for front)
2.5L TURBO diesel intercooled.
A/C front and rear, pw, pl, p/sunroof, 4 door.

RHD :lol:

i wish it was mine but my lovely wife is the proud recipient.
33x10.50 BFG AT's are on order as no lift needed and the 30" tires are not best matched for 4.88 gears.

Special thanks to dunl for all his advice regarding Mercedes including a nice lead...but Pajero it is!

Hey Spinalguy where did you get you pajero from?  I am looking at a Nissan Terrano with the 2.7 l  The guy wants around 10,000 for it with 69,000 kms on it.  It will become my daily driver if I get it.

[FiEND]

nice

1991  and it only has 96,000km?

most imports are like this.  one friend bought and another is still looking at import from Japan.  there's like no where to drive there, most low KMs

[Spinalguy]

i got it privately off an ad on kiiji.
Low mileage is the norm as there really is nowhere to drive far in Japan.
Also, Ornamental was telling me that this Pajero is like the 4 door Suburban here...a land yacht and not really practical over there.
Also, every vehicle in Japan has to be thoroughly inspected and fixed every 2-3 years and i stress THOUROUGHLY.
So, old vehicles are low kms and immaculately maintained.

Truthfully, i wish it was mine but its my wifes.

I got mine from JDMconnection too. Arrived last December.

I see yours has the electronic climate control and rear AC. Mine lacks those two options which would be nice. Other than that, pretty much Identical to mine.

We love ours, it's a great vehicle if you don't mind the slooooow acceleration.

Think of the torque for off-roading, though!

[bae146]

well i bought one as well.

[Spinalguy]

well i bought one as well.

What did you get?
Is it here?
Do tell

[bae146]

I bought on off of Kijijji as well.  1991 2 door 85000 kms.  Dual batteries goofie bush bar out front.  Blue interior.   4.88 gears I think.  It needs new tires, pitman arm, swaybar bushings.  I put some new headlights in it today.  Wow those Hella's are not cheep.  Tried to fab up something today for a winch mount but more thought is needed to install.  Might just go with a front 2" reciever.  Once I sell my jeep I will order all the stuff to do the timing belt waterpump balance shaft belt tensioners etc....  That should be a fun day.  Lots of learning going on.
