Guest ROOSTER Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 thanks for the replys i was thinking about getting a pajero as they seem reasonable to buy and removing the back seats so theirs more room for the terrier box and tools Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macberran 2 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I've the best one in the uk .....really ,only thing against it is ......nothing , and I drove 7 before I bought her and she was miles in front of the abused c--p I drove about , a real goood inexpensive tool. There is a place near Derby that does the spares for NTN. This IS real clean. Sericed at a garage with the MOT. Have the reciepts. Tyres are all v.good. Check the for sale section.

stevesel 18 Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 If you get one make sure its a 2.8 as the 2.5s go through cam and balance belts quickly the 2.8 has a cam chain and is a more robust engine. Dont get one with an electronically controlled fuel pump,go for something older than 97. mine runs well on a mix of veg oil and diesel, and parts are cheap from milner off road. buy the condition and not the age.

Ratman2 2 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Great motors, superb to drive and ultra reliable. One or two of the diesel engines have a rubber damped crankshaft pulley that's a bit prone to failing and can wreck the radiator. Parts are now freely available for most imports so don't take any notice of horror stories, all run of the mill service items, brakes, steering, exhausts etc are available from most motor factor outlets. A couple of sites that may be of interest. If the links don't work just copy and paste. http://www.pajeroaccessories.co.uk/ http://www.pajeroclub.co.uk/index.shtml www.japarts.co.uk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ghengis 4 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 i got a cousin in gloucester that imports direct from japan,2.8 is best motor to get and few problems he has had are.head gaskets and electronically controlled fuel pumps. He gets his spares easily enough.i`ve had a few jap imports myself and they`ve been good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jasper65 6 Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 I had a 1995 2.8 SWB Paj and loved it! it would go anywhere with plenty of grunt and also had some lovelly extra's to play with like adjustable suspension and climate control, apart from this my only gripe was mine was a Auto and the other is it drunk the Gas! I was getting around 19 to 22 MPG ..... Jasper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
