Hi Guys.
When I do a like for like comparison, what should I compare the Pajero with? In my mind, the Pajero sport is comparable to the Toyota Fortuner. Is the Pajero comparable to the Landcruiser or the Prado?
Regards

Talking about comparisons did anyone else see the shoot out on Ignition between the Pajero and the Landcruiser Prado ??????
And who came out tops? Yup ...... the only criticism comparing the two was fuel consumption on the Pajero.
Maybe thats why Nissan took them over

Yip, saw that.
I'll bet if that was a SA shoot-out, the outcome would have been different!

On a similar subject, did anyone see the Pierre St John Ward, U tube report on the Pajero?

Are you talking about the article where he exclaims "what have they done to the Pajero" - he was trying to get up a sand dune (and appeared could not) with the Gen4.1 (NS Pajero with TC and no diff lock) - obviously making a comparison between the then new Gen4.1 without diff lock and the old Gen3 with diff lock - or is there now a newer version?
