During our Christmas holiday in Moz the Pajero got a good, well deserved rest for a change. Spend most of her days lazying about next to the Gazebo on the beach keeping an eye on the Cooler Box with 2M's :twisted: :mrgreen:

Did us proud in getting back-up the dune first time - every time! We were a bit worried after watching a 4.5 Cruiser only succeeding after 3 tries on the first day, but....................probably driver error! :roll:

Did have to work out a bit on the only day we went sightseeing in the area. Had to rescue a Datsun! :roll: :twisted:

(PS - That is the official parking area - before I get reprimanded for beach driving :lol: )

On the second pic........yes :oops: - just came off the tar road when we smelled a burning clutch :shock:

First pic - about 1.2 BAR, but not that noticeable on the BFG's
