Bought for some slower, muddier fun and to keep us moving over winter!

Standard ish - LWB front springs, torsion bar tweaked, 16" steels and some proper tyres.





Just need to sort a cold start problem - think it is one of these relays playing up...

Proper tires? You aren't lying- sure damn near perfect for these conditions.
Take it offroading at some point- mud, water = fun.

How much, if i may ask?

There's a manual glowplug modification on the Pajero Owners club site that might sort your problem.

someone told me the other day that these could hold their own weight on their roof, sort of in built rollcage... good purchase, we bought an old landcruiser, audi allroad and an 63 landy in prep for this winter lol

Would rather not do the manual glow plug route - but I have tried bypassing the glow plug relay but it didnt help much, thinking it might be the busbar or bad earth somewhere, time to go hunting with the multimeter frown

It is being regulaly used off road - fields and green lanes and is so far proving very competant.

It currently stands me at about £1500 - I have sold the original wheels/tyres it came with for good money (very suprised at this!) and sold some other 'accesories' it had to leave it how its stands.

ALthough its got its mot tomorow...

Decent buy then. Assuming today's MOT went well?

So far so good and in the recent weather it has been a worthwhile investment!



The wheels came from Milner offroad and I got the tyres from a friend who owns an off roading company.
