Pajero Owners Club of South Africa

Is it still only rated to tow only 1500Kg
If so it is still of no use to me !

ARB make some VERY nice bars for the Pajero Sport/Challenger.

I especially like the Sahara bar on it. Makes it look a lot more agressive without loosing the refinement. What it would cost I do not know but it will probably be horrendously expensive!

CATS

I had a 2009 Pajero Sport and now a 2011 version. Both had light grey leather. I found that by using a leather cleaner such as Macquires regularly the seats were kept clean and look brand new. Clean and supple!

2009 did not have the rain sensor as the 2011 does so visibility on the 2011 is worse, one has to be careful at intersections, but is quickly becomes a habit.

Getting in one can bump your head but only is the seat is set at its highest setting. Still would prefer the seat to go lower though.

I thought the 4 speed auto would be a negative (no maual availabel whe I bought) but it is not bad and one quickly gets used to any charateristic which is different from your previous vehicle.

In all a great vehicle.

I have the Auto .. but I realised that it happens if the seat is lifted too high, or tilted too much. It gives nice driving position, but difficult to get in and out .. so just lower te seat .. the problem is gone, or wear a crash helmet
