      I saw man 👀, you need to post more about it😍, those gen 1s are special and quite rare now ps. It’s a classic 😉
      Yes I know about the heating 😂🙃, just don’t drive like a Koos and service your coolant system regularly and you will be sorted 🙌

    Great video! Also looking into purchasing an older pajero for myself soon. Could you do a video in the future on what to look out for and what mileage is too high?

Coming from Australia the road laws are lawless here.

      If you are getting a 2.8 tdi, make sure the cooling system has been gone over, new water pump, radiator cleaned or new. They like to cook their heads if this isn’t done. Other than that the are really reliable and great cars 💪🏻
