For some reason I am always drawn to the Canyoero when folk talk about 4 x 4s

I never did like Lambos ... that Canyonero is more like the reliable vehicle I normally get....
Why do I always feel like I have had a prostate examination when I buy a new vehicle?
Perhaps I should try Nissans...

I know of two people that have had Navara's eat themselves. New engines aren't cheap sadly, but maybe the later ones are better?

When they were being fixed, it was mentioned by the (independant) garage that it was a far from rare occurance.

They are fine after 2006

Those ten navara's were 57 plates.

If I was you matey what I have seen from nissan and they're Diesel engines id steer clear. It's really not worth the constant messing about with them. Just remembered while writing this I know someone else with a patrol and I'm pretty sure he had a rod go on his. I'll give him a bell in a bit.

How's the turning circle though ? An orbit the size of a small county in my experiences......thats only a drawback if your doing offroading in woods or valleys.

SWB (MItsu) is better than the LWB and anything is better than a defender or series landie.

Mostly except that Pajeros tend to be much higher specced for the same price. They are more costly to insure though and some insurers won't touch them at all.

 

[789987]

pajeros are japanese imports

 

[789987]

they have to tag on fog lights and have the rectangular license plates etc

 

[ozzy1977]

Why would they have tags on the headlights?

 

[789987]

the regs here require a fog light - in japan they dont so you need to fit an aftermarket fog light to any imports.

if you look at the right hand side of the bumper - thats what i meant by tagged on. headlights not involved.

I worked for a guy who sold 4x4 jeeps for years ,he also had an off road track to trial them and he had a Nissan Patrol that he travelled to portsmouth for because he said they were the most capable 4x4 out there? I had one of these and they are more than capable ,also a lot of car for the money.http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=mitsibishi delica off road&sm=3

They also come with a little wing mirror on the left hand side which does not seem to be any use for anything.

 

[ozzy1977]

An old neighbour told me the little wing mirrors were so they could see the very high kerbs in japan,
