My old man had a Pajero 2.8 TD auto LWB and that only managed mid-twenties. Brilliant Tonka toy, so well made.

There is an excellent club, called The Pajero Owners Club. Something like http://www.pocuk.com/.

Dad's just recently bought one.

Not as good on MPG as you would expect, but it's a good allround car though

they are crap on fuel, i had a 96p reg until 2002, it did around 19-20 mpg and the very best was around 26mpg being gentle with it on a long run.

then i test drove a proper4x4 a 4.2 landcruiser amazon, the shogun felt like a right dog after i,d driven that i ordered a new landcruiser 2 days later.....

I looked at LOADS of 4x4s when i was looking for a family motor

My god tthe MPGs are lower than the M3 evo i had , They are grear cars if you do little miles then you can stomach the running costs

I have gone for the Audi A6 1.9tdi in saloon as i get 50mpg out of it and i do HUGGGEEE miles
